as LOW ON THE HIPS as possible to reduce the
risk of sliding under it during an accident. Adjust
the belt to a SNUG FIT by pulling up on the shoul-

applies tension to the belt in order to take up excess
webbing automatically and to maintain tension on
the belt. For maximum safety, do not put any
excess slack into the safety belt.
