Protecting Adults

Introduction

The following pages provide

instructions on how to properly
protect the driver and other adult
occupants.

These instructions also apply to

children who have outgrown child

seats and are large enough to wear

lap/shoulder belts. (See page

38

for

important additional guidelines on
how to properly protect larger
children.)

1. Close and Lock the Doors

After everyone has entered the car,

be sure the doors and the hatch are
closed and locked.

Your car has a door

monitor light on the

instrument panel to indicate when
either door is not tightly closed.

For safety, locking the doors reduces
the chance that a passenger,
especially a child, will open a door

while the car is moving and

accidentally fall out. It also reduces

the chance of someone being thrown

out of the car during a crash.

For security, locked doors can
prevent an outsider from
unexpectedly opening a door when

you come to a stop.

See page

75

for how to lock the

doors.
