Seat belts
E00404800577
To protect you and your passengers in the event of
an accident, it is the most important that the seat
belts be worn correctly while driving.
The front seat belts have a pretensioner system.
These belts are used the same way as a convention-
al seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and force
limiter system” on page 2-09.
WARNING
l
Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never
put it behind you or under your arm.
l
One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger-
ous.
l
The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat-
back is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward
impact accident, and may be injured by
the belt or by striking the instrument
panel or seatbacks.
l
Seat belts should always be worn by ev-
ery adult who drives or rides in this vehi-
cle, and by all children who are large
enough to wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper
child restraint systems.
l
Remove any twists when using the belt.
WARNING
l
No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre-
vent the seat belt adjusting devices from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
l
Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do
so risks severe or fatal injury to your
child in a collision or sudden stop.
l
Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.
l
Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.

locking mechanism)
E00404901328
