Additional Safety Features 51
Safety belts must be worn by the driver and
all passengers at all times. Before adjusting
or fastening the safety belt, move the seat
forward or rearward and adjust the seat
height as necessary. Sit erect and adjust the
seat cushion and seat back for a comfort-
able driving position. In the event of a
collision, a correct driving position maxi-
mizes the effectiveness of the safety belt.
There are both Federal and State laws gov-
erning the use of safety belts. As laws
differ from state to state, make yourself fa-
miliar with the current rules.

Tether straps are installed on all
suspension-type seats. Tether straps help se-
cure the seat to the floor and are intended
to restrain the seat and safety belt in case
of an accident or sudden stop.
The tethers are not adjustable and do not
need any adjustment.
