2012 YAMAHA RHINO 700 belt

Seat belts
Seat belts should be worn by both driver and pas-
senger. Driver must be sure that the passenger is
belted before driving.

Be sure the seat belt is not twisted, is close-
fitting across the hips and chest, and is
latched securely.


Do not wear the lap belt across the abdomen
or stomach.


Do not put the shoulder belt behind the back.
Failure to use seat belts properly may lead to an
increased likelihood and severity of injury.

An unbelted occupant may strike the interior of the
vehicle, the protective structure, or other objects in
an accident or during operation. You may also fall
completely out or be partially ejected from the ve-
hicle, which may lead to being crushed between
the ground and the vehicle. Wearing the seat belt
helps you remain in the vehicle – the doors and
handholds are not a substitute for using a seat
belt.
A crash can damage the restraint systems in your
vehicle. A damaged restraint system may not
properly protect the person using it, resulting in se-
rious injury or death in a crash. To help make sure
your restraint systems are working properly after a
crash, have them inspected and any necessary re-
placements made as soon as possible.

To wear the seat belt properly, do the following:
1. Hold the latch plate as you pull the belt
across your lap and chest. Make sure the belt
is not twisted and is not caught on any portion
of the vehicle, your clothing, or any equip-
ment you are carrying.
2. If the latch plate is not positioned in the cor-
rect location along the seat belt, squeeze the
latch plate ends together along its long edges
in order to more easily adjust its location up
or down along the length of the belt.

3. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it
clicks. Pull up on the latch plate to make sure
it is secure.
4. Put the lap portion of the belt low on your
hips. Pull up on the shoulder part so the belt
is snug across your hips. Be sure the seat
belt is not caught on the hip restraint or other
object.
5. Position the shoulder belt over your shoulder
and across your chest. The shoulder belt
should fit against your chest. If it is loose, pull
the belt out all the way and then let it retract.
6. Check if the seat belt shoulder position suits
the size of the driver and passenger.
To lower the belt, insert the belt into the seat
belt height adjuster slot as shown. To raise
the belt, remove the belt from the height ad-
juster slot.
7. To release the buckle, firmly press the re-
lease button.
