This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when using
seat belts.
Seat Belt Safety Precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and make
sure all passengers have fastened their
seat belts before starting any trip. Air
bags are designed to supplement the
seat belt as an additional safety device,
not a replacement. Most countries
require all occupants of a vehicle to wear
seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehicle is
moving. Take the following precautions
when adjusting and wearing seat belts:

[ Children under the age of 13 should
be properly restrained in the rear
seats.

[ NEVER allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat, unless the air
bag is deactivated. If a child is seated
in the front passenger seat, move the
seat as far back as possible. And the
child must always be restrained in
the seat properly.

[ NEVER allow an infant or child to be
carried on an occupant’s lap.

[ NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is moving.

[ Do not allow children to share a seat
or seat belt.

[ Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back.
[
NEVER wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the seat belt can damage it.

[ Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will not
protect you properly in an accident.

[ Do not use a seat belt if the webbing
or hardware is damaged.

[ Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.

[ NEVER unfasten the seat belt
while driving. This may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.

[ Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism, because any
materials in the buckle can cause the
seat belt not to be fastened securely.

[ No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prohibit the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prohibit the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate properly.
Always replace:

[Frayed, contaminated, or damaged
webbing.

[ Damaged hardware.

[ The entire seat belt assembly after it
has been worn in an accident, even
if damage to webbing or assembly is
not apparent.

increase the risk of serious injury
in an accident. Take the following
precautions when adjusting the seat
belt:

[ Position the lap portion of the seat
belt as low as possible across your
hips, not on your waist, so that it fits
snugly.

able to pull the belt out smoothly.
WARNING
OHI038182L
Improperly positioned seat belts may
increase the risk of serious injury
in an accident. Take the following
precautions when adjusting the seat
belt:

[Position the lap portion of the seat
belt as low as possible across your
hips, not on your waist, so that it
fits snugly. This allows your strong
pelvic bones to absorb the force of
the crash, reducing the chance of
internal injuries.

[ Position one arm under the shoulder
belt and the other over the belt, as
shown in the illustration.

[ Always position the shoulder belt
anchor into the locked position at the
appropriate height.

[ Never position the shoulder belt
across your neck or face. Height adjustment
You can adjust the height of the shoulder
belt anchor t

o one of the four different
positions for maximum comfort and
safety.
The shoulder portion should be adjusted
so it lies across your chest and midway
over your shoulder nearest the door, not
over your neck.

Rear Seat Belt – Passenger’s 3-point
system with convertible locking
retractor
This type of seat belt combines the
features of both an emergency locking
retractor seat belt and an automatic
locking retractor seat belt. Convertible
retractor type seat belts are installed
in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child
restraint systems. Although a convertible
retractor is also installed in the front
passenger seat position, NEVER place
any infant/child restraint system in the
front seat of the vehicle.
To fasten your seat belt:
Pull the seat belt out of the retractor
and insert the me
tal tab into the buckle.
There will be an audible “click” when
the tab locks into the buckle. When
not securing a child restraint, the seat
belt operates in the same way as the
driver’s seat belt (Emergency Locking
Retractor Type). It automatically adjusts
to the proper length only after the lap
belt portion of the seat belt is adjusted
manually so that it fits snugly across your
hips.
When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of
a child restraint system, the seat belt
operation changes to allow the belt to
retract, but not to extend (Automatic
Locking Retractor Type). Refer to the
“Using a Child Restraint System” section
in this chapter.
