SEAT BELTS

Seats intended for occupancy while the vehi-
cle is in motion are equipped with seat belts for
the protection of the driver and passengers. The
lap belts must be worn as low as possible and fit
snugly across the hip area. Always sit erect and
well back into the seat. To gain full protection of
the safety belt, never let more than one person use
the same safety belt at any one time, and do not
let the safety belts become damaged by pinching
them in the doors or in the seat mechanism. After
any serious accident, any seat belts which were in
use at the time should be replaced.

DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
To Fasten: Be sure belt is not twisted. Grasp
each part of the belt assembly and push tongue
into buckle. Adjust to a snug fit by pulling the
loose end away from the tongue.
To Release: Press button in center of buckle and
slide tongue out of buckle.
WARNING
Snug and low belt positions are
essential. This will ensure that the
force exerted by the lap belt in a colli-
sion is spread over the strong hip area
and not across the abdomen, which
could result in serious injury.
Only seats equipped with seat belts
are to be occupied while vehicle is in
motion.
THREE-POINT LAP-
SHOULDER BELTS
The driver and co-pilot seat belts in your
coach are equipped with automatic locking re-
tractors that let you easily adjust your seat belt to
the proper length for passenger safety.
Fastening:
• Grasp the belt just behind the tongue using
the hand nearest the door or sidewall. Be
sure the belt is not twisted before fastening.
• Pull the belt smoothly outward from the wall
and across your body, then insert the tongue
into the buckle on the aisle side of the seat
until it locks with a positive "click".
• Feed any excess belt length back toward the
wall so the belt retractor will lock the belt at
the proper length for your body when
released.
• The lap belt portion must be worn snug and
low across the pelvic area.
• The shoulder strap portion must be worn
diagonally across the chest and over the
shoulder, but not against the neck.
