Seats and Restraints
Wear the shoulder belt over the
shoulder and across the chest.
These parts of the body are best
able to take belt restraining
forces. The shoulder belt locks if
there is a sudden stop or crash.
Warning
You can be seriously injured,
or even killed, by not wearing
your safety belt properly.
Never allow the lap or
shoulder belt to become
loose or twisted.
Never wear the shoulder belt
under both arms or behind
your back.
Never route the lap or
shoulder belt over an
armrest.

Lap-Shoulder Belt

All seating positions in the vehicle
have a lap-shoulder belt.
On saloon models, if you are using
a rear centre seating position with a
detachable seat belt and the seat
belt is not attached, see Folding the
Backrest under Rear Seats on
page 3-10 for instructions on
reconnecting the seat belt to the
mini-buckle.
The following instructions explain
how to wear a lap-shoulder belt
properly.
1. Adjust the seat, if the seat is
adjustable, so you can sit up
straight. To see how, see "Seats"
in the Index.
2. Pick up the latch plate and pull
the belt across you. Do not let it
get twisted.
The lap-shoulder belt may lock if
you pull the belt across you very
quickly. If this happens, let the
belt go back slightly to unlock it.
Then pull the belt across you
more slowly.
