Properly adjusted head restraints
will help protect occupants from
whiplash and other crash injuries.
See page
for how to adjust the
head restraints and how the driver’s
and front passenger’s active head
restraints work.
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.
