WARNING!
• A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of injury in a collision. The seat
belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your ab-
domen. Always wear the lap part of your seat belt as low as possible and
keep it snug.
• A twisted seat belt may not protect you properly. In a collision, it could even
cut into you. Be sure the seat belt is flat against your body, without twists.
If you can’t straighten a seat belt in your vehicle, take it to your authorized
dealer immediately and have it fixed.
• A seat belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you prop-
erly. The lap portion could ride too high on your body, possibly causing inter-
nal injuries. Always buckle your seat belt into the buckle nearest you.
• A seat belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop,
you could move too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your
seat belt snugly.
• A seat belt that is worn under your arm is dangerous. Your body could strike
the inside surfaces of the vehicle in a collision, increasing head and neck in-
jury. A seat belt worn under the arm can cause internal injuries. Ribs aren’t
as strong as shoulder bones. Wear the seat belt over your shoulder so that
your strongest bones will take the force in a collision.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a
collision. You are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear
your shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together.
• A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no
protection. Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays,
or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disas-
semble or modify the seat belt system. Seat belt assemblies must be re-
placed after a collision.
