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
To learn how to wear the right front passenger's safety belt
properly, see ªDriver Positionº earlier in this section.
The right front passenger's safety belt works the same
way as the driver's safety belt
-- except for one thing.
If you ever pull the shoulder portion of the belt out
all the way, you will engage the child restraint locking
feature. If this happens, just let the belt go back all the
way and start again.
Air Bag System
This part explains the air bag system.
Your vehicle has air bags
-- one air bag for the driver
and another air bag for the right front passenger.
Frontal air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of
injury from the force of an inflating air bag. But these
air bags must inflate very quickly to do their job and
comply with federal regulations.Here are the most important things to know about the
air bag system:
CAUTION:
You can be severely injured or killed in a crash if
you aren't wearing your safety belt
-- even if you
have air bags. Wearing your safety belt during
a crash helps reduce your chance of hitting
things inside the vehicle or being ejected from it.
Air bags are ªsupplemental restraintsº to the
safety belts. All air bags are designed to work
with safety belts, but don't replace them. Air
bags are designed to work only in moderate to
severe crashes where the front of your vehicle
hits something. They aren't designed to inflate
at all in rollover, rear, side or low
-speed frontal
crashes. And, for unrestrained occupants,
air bags may provide less protection in frontal
crashes than more forceful air bags have
provided in the past. Everyone in your vehicle
should wear a safety belt properly
-- whether or
not there's an air bag for that person.

4. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of
the retractor to set the lock.5. To tighten the belt, feed the shoulder belt back into
the retractor while you push down on the child restraint.
If you're using a forward
-facing child restraint, you
may find it helpful to use your knee to push down on
the child restraint as you tighten the belt.
6. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
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.

Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.

Passengers -- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out of a moving
vehicle. When a door is locked, the handle
won't open it. You increase the chance of
being thrown out of the vehicle in a crash
if the doors aren't locked. So, wear safety
belts properly and lock the doors whenever
you drive.

Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A child
can be overcome by extreme heat and can
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.

Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or stop
your vehicle. Locking your doors can help
prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle:

You can use the keyless entry system, if your vehicle
has this feature.

You can use your key to unlock your door from
the outside.

You can use the power lock switch (if equipped) to
lock or unlock the doors.

To manually lock a door from the inside, slide the
manual lever on your door down. To manually
unlock a door from the inside, slide the lever on
the door up. You will see a colored area on the lever
when the door is unlocked.
