WA R N I N G
All seatbacks should always be in an upright position when driving, or seat belt effectiveness may be reduced.Seat belts are designed to offer maxi- mum protection when seatbacks are in the upright position.

An air bag supplements, or adds to, the frontal crash protection offered by seat belts. The driver and all pas-sengers must be properly restrained by wearing seat belts at all times, whether or not an air bag is mountedat their seating position, to minimizethe risk of severe injury or death inthe event of a crash.
WA R N I N G
• Never allow persons to ride in thecargo area of a vehicle. In the eventof an accident, there is a much greater risk of injury for persons who are not riding in a seat withtheir seat belt securely fastened.• Seat belts should always beadjusted as follows:– the lap portion of the belt shouldbe worn low across the pelvis,not across the waist.– the shoulder straps should beworn on the outside shoulderonly, and never under the arm.– the shoulder straps should beaway from your face and neck,but not falling off your shoulder.(Continued)
Above the pelvis
WA R N I N G
(Continued)• Seat belts should never be wornwith the straps twisted and should be adjusted as tightly as is com- fortable to provide the protectionfor which they have been designed. A slack belt will provide less pro- tection than one which is snug.• Make sure that each seat beltbuckle is inserted into the properbuckle catch.

Such seat belt use could cause serious injury in the event of anaccident.• Periodically inspect seat beltassemblies for excessive wear anddamage. Seat belts should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated, or damagedin any way. It is essential to replace the entire seat belt assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact,even if damage to the assembly is not obvious.• Children age 12 and under shouldride properly restrained in the rearseat.• Infants and small children shouldnever be transported unless theyare properly restrained. Restraint systems for infants and small chil-dren can be purchased locally andshould be used. Make sure that the system you purchase meets appli- cable safety standards.
