Protecting Adults

Properly adjusted head restraints

will help protect occupants from
whiplash and other crash injuries.

See page

95

for how to adjust the

head restraints.

5. Fasten and Position the Seat

Belts

Insert the latch plate into the buckle,
then tug on the belt to make sure the
belt is securely latched. Also check

that the belt is not twisted, because a
twisted belt can cause serious

injuries in a crash.

Position the lap part of the belt as
low as possible across your hips,
then pull up on the shoulder part of
the belt so the lap part fits snugly.

This lets your strong pelvic bones

take the force of a crash and reduces
the chance of internal injuries.

Driver and Passenger Safety

Improperly positioning head
restraints reduces their

effectiveness and you can be
seriously injured in a crash.

Make sure head restraints are
in place and positioned properly

before driving.
