ABOUT SEAT BELTS
WARNING: Seat belts should be
worn by all occupants, for every
journey no matter how short. Failure to do
so greatly increases the risk of death or
serious injury in the event of an accident.
Seat belts and child restraint systems are
the most effective means of restraining
vehicle occupants from impact forces,
which, in turn, minimizes the danger of
injury from interior impacts and the effects
of whiplash. Therefore wearing a seat belt
is required by law in most states.
Both the driver and passenger seating
positions are equipped with three-point
inertia reel seat belts. Inertia reel belts are
tensioned automatically and allow
freedom of movement during normal
driving conditions.
The belt reel automatically locks,
preventing movement of occupants,
whenever your vehicle experiences the
force associated with hard acceleration,
braking, cornering or on impact in a
collision. The reel may also lock when
driving on steep hills or slopes.
Each of the Revero’s rear seating positions
is equipped with an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR), which can lock a child
restraint system when the webbing is
released after being completely pulled out.
The Revero’s right front seating position is
fitted with a cinch tongue which can be
used to lock the lap belt portion of the seat
belt assembly. Once the tongue is inserted
into the buckle, the lap portion will be
locked and cannot be extended by pulling
the webbing. It does not require inverting,
twisting or deforming of the webbing to
make this locking feature operate.
SEAT BELT SAFETY
WARNING: Children under 4ft 5in
(1.35 m) tall or younger than 12 years
of age must be secured in a suitable child
restraint. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions when installing child restraint
systems.
WARNING: A seat belt which is not
worn, is worn incorrectly, or has not
been engaged fully in the seat belt buckle,
cannot perform its intended function. To
avoid injuries, ensure that all vehicle
occupants wear their seat belt correctly at
all times.
WARNING: Seat belts are designed
to bear upon the bony structure of
the body, and should be worn low across
the pelvis, over the shoulder and across the
chest. Avoid wearing the lap section of the
belt across the abdominal area.
WARNING: Always adjust the belt to
remove slack. Seat belts worn too
loose can result in injuries because they
allow excessive forward movement in an
accident. Never wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your back.
WARNING: Do not route the belt
across sharp edged or fragile objects
especially if these are on or in your clothing
The seat belt could be damaged and you
could be injured.
WARNING: Seat belts should not be
worn with any part of the strap
twisted.
WARNING: Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a child
being carried on the occupant’s lap.
WARNING: It is essential that seat
belts that have been worn in an
accident are replaced, even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. The belt
anchors must also be checked.
WARNING: No modifications or
additions should be made that
prevent the seat belt mechanism from
taking up slack, or that prevent the seat
belt being adjusted to remove slack. A slack
belt greatly reduces the level of occupant
protection.
WARNING: If any damage, wear,
cuts, defects, or impaired operation
are noted with the seat belts, the vehicle
should be taken to your Karma Service
Provider for immediate attention. Do not
