22 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver, even
on short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor driver
and cause a collision that includes you. This can happen
far away from home or on your street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives. They also
can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some
of the worst injuries happen when people are thrown
from the vehicle. Seat belts provide protection from that,
and they reduce the risk of injury caused by striking the
inside of the vehicle.Everyonein a motor vehicle needs
to be buckled up all the time.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
Each seating position is equipped with a combined
lap/shoulder belt system.
The belt webbing retractor will lock only during very
sudden stops or impacts. This feature allows the shoulder
part of the belt to move freely with you under normalconditions. In a collision, the belt locks and reduces the
risk of your striking the inside of the vehicle or being
thrown out. The seat belts are also equipped with emer-
gency tensioning retractors. These tensioning retractors
are located in each belt's inertia reel and become opera-
tionally ready with the key in the ignition switch turned
to the ACC or ON/RUN positions. The emergency
tensioning retractors are designed to activate during
frontal and rear impacts. They remove slack from the
belts in such a way that the seat belts fit more snugly
against the body, restricting its forward movement as
much as possible.
In cases of other frontal impacts, roll overs, certain side
impacts, rear collisions or other accidents without suffi-
cient frontal or rear impact forces, the emergency tension-
ing retractors will not be activated. The driver and
passenger will then be protected by the fastened seat
belts and inertia reel in the usual manner.
