Using Seat Belts During Pregnancy; Seat Belt Reminder - Ford FOCUS LV Manual

USING SEAT BELTS DURING
PREGNANCY
The Australian National Health and
Medical Research Council recommends
that all pregnant women travelling in a
motor vehicle wear the lap-sash seat
belt with the buckle over the hip and the
lap section of the belt as tight as comfort
will allow, and as low as possible, below
the abdomen.
WARNING
Never wear just the lap strap of
a lap/shoulder diagonal seat belt

the shoulder strap. Both of these
actions are extremely dangerous and
may increase your risk of serious injury.
