WARNING
Do not modify, remove, disassemble
seat belts. Doing so may prevent
them from functioning properly and
cause the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a collision.
Above the pelvis
WARNING
• Never allow persons to ride in the
cargo area of a vehicle. In the event
of an accident, there is a much
greater risk of injury for persons
who are not riding in a seat with
their seat belt securely fastened.
• Seat belts should always be
adjusted as follows:
– the lap portion of the belt should
be worn low across the pelvis,
not across the waist.
– the shoulder straps should be
worn on the outside shoulder
only, and never under the arm.
– the shoulder straps should be
away from your face and neck,
but not falling off your shoulder.

WARNING
(Continued)
• Seat belts should never be worn
with the straps twisted and should
be adjusted as tightly as is com-
fortable to provide the protection
for which they have been designed.
A slack belt will provide less pro-
tection than a snug belt.
• Check that each seat belt latch
plate (tongue) is inserted into the
proper buckle catch. It is possible
to cross the buckles in the rear
seat.
