Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help protect you and your passengers in an accident. Seat belts are the most important safetydevice. When worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or death in various types of crashes. For added protec-tion during a severe frontal collision, your vehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door locks also are safety equipment, which must be used correctly. Always check the following before you drive: That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their seat belt.  That infants and small children are prop- erly secured in appropriate child restraintsystems in the rear seat.  That all doors are full
y closed and locked.
 That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly adjusted.
