Warning!

USE SEAT BELTS PROPERLY.

• Each occupant should wear their

seat belt at all times, because seat

belts help reduce the likelihood of

and potential severity of injuries

in accidents, including rollovers.

"SRS" (driver airbag, passenger

airbag), "ETR" (seat belt

emergency tensioning retractors),

and knee bolsters are designed

to enhance the protection offered

to properly belted occupants in

certain frontal impacts which

exceed preset deployment

thresholds.

• Improperly positioned seat belts

do not provide maximum

protection and may cause serious

injuries in case of an accident.

•

Never wear the shoulder belt

under your arm, against your

neck or off your shoulder. In a

crash, your body would move

too far forward. That would

increase the chance of head and

neck injuries. The belt would also

apply too much force to the ribs

or abdomen, which could severely

injure internal organs such as

your liver or spleen.

• Position the lap belt as low as

possible on your hips and not

across the abdomen. If the belt

is positioned across your

abdomen, it could cause serious

injuries in a crash.

•

E

ach seat belt should never

be

used for more than one person

at a time. Do not fasten a seat

belt around a person and objects.

• Belts should not be worn twisted.

In a crash, you wouldn't have

the full width of the belt to take

impact forces. The twisted belt

against your body could cause

injuries.

• Pregnant women should also

use a lap-shoulder belt. The

lap belt portion should be

positioned as low as possible on

the hips to avoid any possible

pressure on the abdomen.
