Seat Belts
Seat belts are an important safety feature of your
vehicle. For your protection, always use your seat
belts. The driver's seat and all other seats designed
to carry passengers while under way have been
equipped with seat belts.
WARNING: ALL RIDERS SHOULD BE FURNISHED
WITH AND USE SEAT BELTS WHILE THE VEHICLE
IS IN MOTION. SEATS WHICH ARE NOT EQUIP-
PED WITH SAFETY BELTS SHOULD NOT BE OC-
CUPIED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND
WILL BE LABELED: "NOT FOR USE WHILE THE
VEHICLE IS IN MOTION." IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO
BELT IN PERSONS USING BEDS.
Adjust seat belts as follows:
Pivot buckle at right angles to the belt and pull to the
desired length.
To fasten belt, be sure it is not twisted, then push the
tongue end of one belt into the buckle of the mating
belt. Be sure it latches. Adjust the belt snugly as low
on the abdomen as comfort will allow, for greatest
safety.
To release the belt, depress the button in the center
of the buckle and slide the tongue out of the buckle.
Never use a belt for more than one person at a time.

Child Restraint
All vehicle occupants, and especially children,
should be restrained whenever riding in vehicles.
Holding a child in your arms is not a substitute for a
child restraint system. In an accident, a child held in
a person's arms can be struck or crushed by any
unrestrained rider. An unrestrained child could also
be injured by striking the interior, or by being thrown
from the vehicle during a sudden manuever or impact.
A child restraint system can help protect a child in a
vehicle. Note that some states require the use of child
restraint systems.
Children small enough for a child restraint system
should be restrained that way if at all possible.
However, the following may provide some degree of
protection if a child restraint is not used.
• Infants who cannot sit up should be pla.;ed in a
padded baby carrier. Put it crossways on the
vehicle seat and securely restrain it with the vehi-
cle's seat belts.
• Children who can sit up by themselves should
be restrained with the seat belts provided. Never
let a child stand or kneel on any seat.
When using any child restraint system, be sure to
read and follow all instructions on installation and use
that come with the system.
