The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on
the hips, just touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies
force to the strong pelvic bones. And you'd be less
likely to slide under the lap belt. If you slid under it, the
belt would apply force at your abdom'en. This could
cause serious or even fatal injuries. The shoulder belt
should go over the shoulder and across the chest. These
parts of the body are best able to take belt restraining
forces.
The safety belt locks if there's
a
sudden stop or crash.
Lap Belt Cinch Feature
If you do not want the lap belt to move freely, push the
"cinch" button. To loosen the belt, unbuckle it, let it
retract, and buckle up again.
