c::> page 13 7, Safety belt position.
Safety belts 13 7
-Safety belts offer optimum protection
only when the seatback is upright and
be lts are properly posit ioned on the
body .
- If the rear seat backrest is not securely
latched, the passenger will move for
ward with the backrest during sudden braking, in a sudde n maneuver and espe
cially in a crash.
- Never attach the safety belt to the buck
l e for another seat . Attaching the belt to
the wrong buckle will reduce safety be lt
effec tiveness and can cause serious per
sonal injury.
- A passenge r who is not properly restrain
ed can be seriously injured by the sa fety
be lt itself when it moves from the stron
ger parts of the body into critical areas
like the abdomen.
- Always lock the conve rtible locking re
tractor when you are securing a child seat in the veh icle
