Safety Belts: They’re
for Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to
use safety belts properly. It also tells you
some things you should not do with safety
belts, And
it explains the Supplemental
Inflatable Restraint, or
“air bag” system.
:his figure lights up as a reminder to
buckle up. (See
“Safety Belt Reminder
Jght” in the Index.)
n many states and Canadian provinces,
he law says to wear safety belts. Here’s
vhy: Thev work. You
never know
if you’ll be in a crash. If
you do have a crash, you don’t know if it
will be a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and some crashes
can be
so sieri~u~ that even buckled up a
person wouldn’t survive. But most
crashes are
in between. In many of them,
people
who buckle up can survive and
sometimes walk away. Without belts they
could have been badly hurt or killed.
After more than 25 years of safety belts in
vehicles, the facts are clear. In most
crashes buckling up does matter
... a lot!

Q: Why don’t they just put in air bags
so people won’t have to wear safety
belts?
A: Air bags, or Supplemental Inflatable
Restraint systems, are in some
vehicles today and will be in more of
them in the future. But they are
supplemental systems only
- so they
work
with safety belts, not instead of
them. Every air bag system ever
offered for sale has required the use
of safety belts. Even if you’re in
a
vehicle that has air bags, you still
have to buckle up
to get the most
protection. That’s true not only
in
frontal collisions, but especially in
side and other collisions.
Q: If I’m a good driver, and 1 never
drive far from home, why should
I
wear safety belts?
A: You may be an excellent driver, but if
you’re in an accident - even one that
isn’t your fault
- you and your
passengers can be hurt. Being
a good
driver doesn’t protect you from things
beyond your control, such as bad
drivers.
Most accidents occur within
25 miles
(40 km) of home. And the greatest
number
of serious injuries and deaths
occur at speeds
of less than 40 mph
(65 km/h).
Safety belts are for everyone.
Safety Belt Reminder
Light
When the key is turned to “Run” or
“Start,” a chime
will come on for about
eight seconds to remind people
to fasten
their safety belts, unless
the driver’s
safety belt is already buckled. The safety
belt light will also come
on and stay on
until the driver’s belt is buckled.

This vehicle has AIR BAGS for front occupants.
A CAUTION: YOU NEED YOUR SAFETY BELT, EVEN WITH AN AIR BAG.
AND HERE’S WHY:
Air bags are not designed to inflate in rollovers or in rear, side or low-speed frontal crashes.
Air bags inflate with great force, faster than the blink of an eye.
If you’re too close to an inflating
air bag, it could seriously injure you. Safety belts help keep\
you in position for air bag inflation
in a crash.
. An inflating air bag can seriously injure small children. Follow t\
he instructions on the passenger
safety belt Caution label.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM IS NOT REQUIRED. If the
air bag readiness light comes on while you are driving, or doesn’t come on when you first start
your vehicle, see your dealer for service.
