Lap/Shoulder Belts

All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with

lap/shoulder belts.
The belt webbing retractor is designed to lock during

very sudden stops or impacts. This feature allows the

shoulder part of the belt to move freely with you under

normal conditions. However, in an collision, the belt will

lock and reduce your risk of striking the inside of the

vehicle or being thrown out.

WARNING!

It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or

outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be seriously injured
or killed.

WARNING!

(Continued)

Do not allow people to ride in any area of your

vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat
belts.

Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and

using a seat belt properly.

Wearing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat

belts are designed to go around the large bones of
your body. These are the strongest parts of your
body and can take the forces of a collision best.

Wearing your belt in the wrong place could make

your injuries in a collision much worse. You might
suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out
of part of the belt. Follow these instructions to wear
your seat belt safely and to keep your passengers
safe, too.
