WARNING

•
Never wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back. An improperly positioned
shoulder belt can cause serious
injuries in a crash. The shoulder
belt should be positioned mid-
way over your shoulder across
your collarbone.
•
Never wear a seat belt over
fragile objects. If there is a sud-
den stop or impact, the seat belt
can damage it.
•
Avoid wearing twisted seat
belts. A twisted belt can't do its
job as well. In a collision, it could
even cut into you. Be sure the
belt webbing is straight and not
twisted.
•
Be careful not to damage the
belt webbing or hardware. If the
belt webbing or hardware is
damaged, replace it.
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap section
of the belt across the abdominal
area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection for
which they have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid con-
tamination of the webbing with pol-
ishes, oils and chemicals, and par-
ticularly battery acid. Cleaning may
safely be carried out using mild
soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or damaged.
