WARNING
Wear Your Seat Belts at All Times.
WARNING
An air bag supplements, or adds to,
the frontal crash protection offered
by seat belts. The driver and co-
driver must be properly restrained by
wearing seat belts at all times even if
driving for a very short distance,
whether or not an air bag is mounted
at their seating position, to minimize
the risk of severe injury or death in
the event of a crash.

belt is worn low across the pelvis,

straps should be worn on the out-
side shoulder only, and never

never be worn with the straps

been designed. A slack belt will
provide less protection than one
which is snug.
• Make sure that each seat belt
buckle is inserted into the proper
buckle catch. It is possible to cross
the buckle in the rear seat.
