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 recommen-
dations, consult a physician.
B150C02A-AAT
Larger Children
Children who are too large for child restraint
systems should occupy the rear seat and use
the available 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 restrained by the available lap/shoul-
der 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 rear facing child seat in
the front seat of a vehicle.
B150B03Y-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 1-17.
WARNING:
Every person in your vehicle needs to be
properly restrained at all times, including
infants and children. In a collision, an un-
restrained 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 in the rear seat of the
vehicle.
NOTE:
Small children are best protected from in-
jury 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 re-
straint for this information. See page 1-17.
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.
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 pas-
sengers should be sitting 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.
WARNING:
Sitting in a reclined position or lying down
when your vehicle is in motion can be
dangerous. Even if you buckle up, your
seat belts can't do their job when you're
reclined.
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
recommendations.
