B150D01A-AAT
Pregnant Women
The use of a seat belt is recommended for
pregnant women to lessen the chance of injury
in an accident. When a seat belt is used, the lap
belt portion should be placed as low and snugly
as possible on the hips, not across the abdo-
men. For specific recommendations, consult a
physician.
B150B02A-AAT
Infant or Small Child
All 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific requirements in
your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must
be properly placed and installed in the rear seat.
Information about the use of these restraints
begins on page 1-19.

SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS
B150C02A-AAT
Larger Children
Children who are too large for child restraint
systems should always occupy the rear seat
and use the available lap/shoulder belts. The
lap portion should be fastened snug on the
hips and as low as possible. Check belt fit
periodically. A child's squirming could put the
belt out of position. Children are afforded the
most safety in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat. If a larger child (over age
13) must be seated in the front seat, the child
should be securely restrained by the available
lap/shoulder belt and the seat should be placed
in the rearmost position. Children under the
age of 13 should be restrained securely in the
rear seat. NEVER place a child under the age
of 13 in the front seat. NEVER place a rear
facing child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.
WARNING:
All occupants of the vehicle must wear their
seat belts at all times. Note that this vehicle is
equipped with a Supplemental Restraint
(Airbag) System as discussed beginning on
page 1-26. The seat belts must be used in
conjunction with the supplemental airbag sys-
tem. State laws require that some or all occu-
pants of the vehicle use seat belts. The possi-
bility of increased injury or severity of injury
in an accident will be increased if this elemen-
tary safety precaution is not observed.
!
WARNING:
Every person in your vehicle needs to be
buckled up at all times, including infants and
children. In a collision, an unrestrained child
can become a "missile" inside the car. The
force required to hold a child on your lap
could be so great that you could not hold the
child. Any child riding in the vehicle should
always be in a proper restraint.
NOTE:
Small children are best protected from injury
in an accident when properly restrained in the
rear seat by a child restraint system that
meets the requirements of the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. Before buying any
child restraint system, make sure that it has a
label certifying that it meets Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213. The restraint must be
appropriate for your child's height and weight.
Check the label on the child restraint for this
information. See page 1-19.
