Larger Children
Children who are too large for child
restraint systems should always oc-
cupy the rear seat and use the avail-
able lap/shoulder belts. The lap por-
tion 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 system
in the rear seat. If a larger child (over
age 13) must be seated in the front
seat, the child should be securely re-
strained 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.
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
abdomen. For specific recommenda-
tions, consult a physician.
B150E01A-AAT
Injured Person
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
When this is necessary, you should
consult a physician for recommenda-
tions.
B150G01A-AAT
Do Not Lie Down
To reduce the chance of injuries in the
event of an accident and to achieve
maximum effectiveness of the restraint
system, all passengers should be sit-
ting up and the front seats should be in
an upright position when the car is
moving. A seat belt cannot provide
proper protection if the person is lying
down in the rear seat or if the front seat
is in a reclined position.
B150F01A-AAT
One Person Per Belt
Two people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of
injuries in case of an accident.
