slowly and evenly over your chest and hip.

belt buckle on the inner side of the seat until it

Make sure that the seat belt is not trapped or
twisted and that it is not rubbing against sharp

Check that the horizontal section of the belt al-
ways fits snugly across your pelvis. Therefore,

Position the lap belt so
that it is as far down on the lap as possible and
not pressing against the abdomen.

again during the journey to ensure that the hor-
izontal section remains tight.
