ware .
-Do not wear the shoulder part of the belt
under your arm or otherwise out of position.
-Severa l layers of heavy clothing may inter­
fere with correct positioning of belts and re­ duce the overall effectiveness of t he system.
-Always keep belt buckles free of anything

Safety belt position .
-Safety belts offer optimum protection only
when the seatback is upright and belts are
properly positioned on the body.

for another seat. Attaching the belt to the
wrong buckle will reduce safety belt effec­
tiveness and can cause serious personal in­
JUry.

can be seriously injured by the safety belt it­
self when it
moves from the stronger parts
of the body into critical areas like the abdo­
men .

.&_ WARNING
Improperly positioned safety belts can cause
serious personal injury in an accident.
- The shou lder belt should lie as close to the
center of the collar bone as possible and
should fit well on the body. Hold the belt
above the latch tongue and pull it evenly
across the chest so that it sits as low as pos­
sible on the pelvis and there is no pressure
on the abdomen. The belt should always fit
snugly
¢ fig. 158. Pull on the belt to tighten
if necessary.
- A loose-fitting safety belt can cause serious
injuries by shifting its position on your body
from the strong bones to more vulnerable

soft tissue and cause serious injury .
- Always read and heed all WARNINGS and
other important information
