CHECKLISTS
Check that warning lights are lit when the ignition key is turned to the ON or START position.
Make sure that seat is locked in position. Do not adjust driver's seat swivel or fore/aft mechanism while vehicle is moving
or the seat could move unexpectedly, causing a loss of control.
Check that front passenger's seat is locked in position.
Fasten seat belts. Belts should be placed as low as possible around the hips. This places the load of the body on the
strong hip bone structure instead of around the soft abdominal area and prevents sliding in case of accident.

Children could be endangered in a crash if their child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle.
