3-18 Seats and Restraints
4. Be sure that the belt is nottwisted and it lies flat. The
elastic cord must be under the
belt and the guide on top.
5. The elastic cord on the comfort guide is adjustable. Make it
longer or shorter by squeezing
both ends of the plastic adjuster
and pulling on the elastic cord or
the guide.
6. Adjust the guide so the shoulder portion of the belt is on the
shoulder and not falling off of it.
The belt should be close to, but
not contacting, the neck. Improper comfort guide
adjustment could reduce the
effectiveness of the safety belt in
a crash.
{Warning
A safety belt that is not properly
worn may not provide the
protection needed in a crash. The
person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. The shoulder
belt should go over the shoulder
and across the chest. These parts
of the body are best able to take
belt restraining forces.
7. Buckle and position the safety
belt as described previously in
this section. Make sure that the
shoulder belt crosses the
shoulder.
To remove and store the comfort
guide, squeeze the belt edges
together so that the safety belt can
be removed from the guide. Unhook
the guide from the loop on the seat.
Store the guide in a convenient
place like the glove box for the next
time it is needed.

Service
All vehicles have a label underhood
that identifies the refrigerant used in
the vehicle. The refrigerant system
should only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians. The air
conditioning evaporator should
never be repaired or replaced by
one from a salvage vehicle.
It should only be replaced by a new
evaporator to ensure proper and
safe operation.
During service, all refrigerants
should be reclaimed with proper
equipment. Venting refrigerants
directly to the atmosphere is harmful
to the environment and may also
create unsafe conditions based on
inhalation, combustion, frostbite,
or other health-based concerns.

Truck-Camper Loading
Information
A vehicle-specific Truck-Camper
Loading Information label is
attached to the inside of the
vehicle's glove box. This label
indicates if a slide-in camper
can be carried, how much of a
load the vehicle can carry, and
how to correctly spread out the load. It will help to match the
right slide-in camper to the
vehicle.
Your dealer can help make a
good vehicle-camper match and
help determine the Cargo
Weight Rating (CWR).
When installing and loading a
slide-in camper, check the
manufacturer's instructions.
When carrying a slide-in
camper, the total cargo load of
the vehicle is the weight of the
camper plus:
.Everything added to the
camper after it left the
factory.
.Everything in the camper.
.All the people inside.
The CWR is the maximum
weight of the load the vehicle
can carry. It does not include the
