SAFETY BELTS
Seat Belts Safety Tips
Seat belts are designed for people of adult
size, and they must be used by only one
person at a time. Always make sure that all
passengers' belts are fastened (properly),
and consider the following.
Precautions:
- Do not let passengers recline the seats
extremely rearwards. The complete
performance is gained when backrest angle
is about 25 ° from vertical axis.
- Adjust safety belts to eliminate any slacks.
Do not pull the belt away from the body
while running. To operate properly, safety
belts should be worn as tightly as possible.
- The lap part of the belt should not go over
the abdomen but pelvic bones. The shoulder
belt should go over the shoulder and across
the chest without any pressure to the neck.
- Remove hard, sharp or fragile objects
as keys, pens, glasses and etc. from your
clothes. The belt should not be twisted, and
there would be no obstacle in between.
- Replace seat belts if they are worn, lost
their sensitivity or damaged.
- Use the seat belts to fix luggage carried
on the seats. Throwing loose packages
in passengers’ compartment during an
accident can cause serious injuries.
- In most countries, all passengers are
legally obligated to wear safety belts
unless be exempted on medical certificate.
- Pregnant women should pass the shoulder
portion across the shoulder, breast cleavage
and from one side of the fetus. If in doubt,
consult your physician.
-The belt is equipped with power restricting
system to control the impact incurred to the
passenger chest in any probable accidents.
