touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies force
to the strong pelvic bones.

to slide under the lap belt. If you slid under it, the
belt would apply force at your abdomen. This could cause serious or even
fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should go over the shoulder and across the
chest. These parts of
the body are best able to take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks
if there's a sudden stop or a crash.
Q: What's wrong with this?

Safety belts work for everyone, including pregnant women. Like all
occupants, they are more likely to be seriously injured if they don’t wear
safety belts.
A pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder belt, and the lap portion
should be worn
as low as possible throughout the pregnancy.
The best way
to protect the fetus is to protect the mother. When a safety belt
is worn properly, it’s more likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making safety belts effective
is
wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See “Driver Position,” earlier in this section.
When the shoulder belt
is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it does, let it
go back all the way and start again.

The positions next to the windows have lap-shoulder belts. Here’s how to
wear one properly.
1. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you. Don’\
t let it get
twisted. On four-door models, the shoulder belt may lock if you pull
the belt across you very quickly. If this happens, let the belt go back
slightly to unlock it. Then pull the belt across you more slowly.
2. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure.
When the shoulder belt
is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it doesr
let it go back all the way and start again.
If the belt
is not long enough, see “Safety Belt Extender’’ at the end of
this section.
Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned
so you would
be able
to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
3. To make the lap part tight, pull down on the buckle end of the belt as
you pull up on the shoulder part.

6. To tighten the belt, feed the shoulder belt back into the retractor while
you push down on the child restraint.
7. Push and pull the child restraint in different directions to be sure it is
secure. If you're using a bucket seat, adjust the seat forward until the
lap portion
of the safety belt holds the restraint firmly. But don't move
it any more than needed to tighten the lap belt.
To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle's safety belt and let
it
go back all the way.
The safety belt will move freely again and be ready to work for an adult or
larger child passenger.
