Your Vehicle's Safety Features
These safety features are designed
to reduce the severity of injuries in a
crash. However, you and your
passengers can't take full advantage
of these safety features unless you
remain sitting in a proper position
and
always wear your seat belts
properly. In fact, some safety
features can contribute to injuries if
they are not used properly.

Driver and Passenger Safety

Seat Belts

For your safety, and the safety of
your passengers, your vehicle is
equipped with seat belts in all seating
positions.
Your seat belt system also
includes an indicator on the
instrument panel to remind you and
your passengers to fasten your seat
belts.
Why Wear Seat Belts
Seat belts are the single most
effective safety device for adults and
larger children. (Infants and smaller
children must be properly restrained
in child restraint systems.)
Not wearing a seat belt properly
increases the chance of serious
injury or death in a crash, even
though your vehicle has airbags.
In most European Countries there is
a law covering the use of seat belts.
Please take time to familiarize
yourself with the legal requirements
of the countries in which you will
drive.
Not wearing a seat belt
properly increases the
chance of serious injury or
death in a crash, even if you
have airbags.
Be sure you and your
passengers always wear seat
belts and wear them properly.
