WARNING
!●
Always place the should
er belt over your shoulder
and across your chest. Never put it behind you or under your arm.
●
One seat belt should be used by only one person. Doing otherwise can be dangerous.
●
The seat belt will provid
e its wearer with maximum
protection if the recliner seat
back is placed in fully
upright position. When th
e seatback is reclined,
there is greater risk that
the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially
in a forward impact acci-
dent, and may be injured by the belt or by striking the instrument panel or seatbacks.
●
Seat belts should always be
worn by every adult who
drives or rides in this ve
hicle, and by all children
who are large enough to wear seat belts properly. Other children should always use proper childrestraint systems.
●
Remove any twists when using the belt.
