Seat belts are installed in your vehicle to help reduce the risk of
injury to the driver and passenger in the event of an accident.
Always use the provided seat belts.
Carefully review the following information for proper seat belt
usage.
CAUTION
!
● Always use the correct head restraint provided for
the seat and do not install the head restraint in the
wrong direction.
WARNING
!
● To help reduce the risk of injury or death in an acci-
dent, seat belts and child restraints must always be
used. Refer to “Child restraints” on page 2-28 for
additional information.
● Never use one seat belt for more than one person.
● Never carry more people in your vehicle than there
are seat belts.
● Always adjust the seat belt for a snug fit.
● Always place the shoulder belt over your shoulder
and across your chest. Never put it behind you or
under your arm.
● Always wear the lap belt as low as possible across
your hips, not around your waist.
● Never modify or alter the seat belts in your vehicle.
● To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or
death during deployment of the driver’s air bag,
always properly wear the seat belt and adjust the
driver’s seat as far back as possible while maintain-
ing a position that still enables you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel, and safely
operate the vehicle.
