Seat belts

Seat belts are designed to bear upon
the bony structure of the body, and
should be worn low across the front
of the pelvis, chest and shoulders.

Seat belt restraint system

WARNING
For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the car
is moving.
Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the upright
position.
Children age 13 and younger must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow children
to ride in the front passenger
seat. If a child over 13 must be
seated in the front seat, he/she
must be properly belted and the
seat should be moved as far back
as possible.
Never wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back. An improperly positioned
shoulder belt can cause serious
injuries in a crash. The shoulder
belt should be positioned midway
over your shoulder across your
collarbone.
Never wear a seat belt over frag -
ile objects. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the seat belt can
damage it.
