It’s very important for rear seat passengers to buckle up!
Accident statistics show that unbelted people in the rear
seat
are hurt more often in crashes than those who are
wearing safety belts.
Rear passengers who aren’t safety belted can be thrown
out
of the vehicle in a crash. And they can strike others
in
the vehicle who are wearing safety belts.
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.
The shoulder belt may lock if you pull the belt across
you very quickly.
If this happens, let the belt go back
slightly tu unlock it. Then pull the belt across
you
more slowly.
2. Push the latch piate into the buckle until it clicks.

The lap pat of the belt should be won1 low and snug on
the hips. just touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies
force to the strong pelvic bones.
And you'd be less likely
to slide under the lap belt.
If you slid under it, the bel;
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,
or if you pull the belt very quickly out of'tlme retractor.
You can be seriously hurt if your shoulder belt is
too loose. In a crash, you would move forward
too much, which could increase injury. The
shoulder belt should fit against your
body.

To unlatch the belt, just push the button on the buckle.

safety belt quickly if you ever had to.

retractor to set the lock.
