In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely
to die than a person wearing a safety belt.

Each seating position in your vehicle has a specific safety belt
assembly which is made up of one buckle and one tongue that

are designed to be used as a pair. 1) Use the shoulder belt on the
outside shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder belt under the arm.
2) Never swing the safety belt around your neck over the inside
shoulder. 3) Never use a single belt for more than one person.

Always transport children 12 years old and under in the back
seat and always properly use appropriate child restraints.

Safety belts and seats can become hot in a vehicle that has been
closed up in sunny weather; they could burn a small child. Check

seat covers and buckles before you place a child anywhere near them.

Combination lap and shoulder belts

The belt guide is intended to improve access to the safety belt and to
allow access to the rear seat.

Before fastening the safety belt,
make sure lower portion of the lap
and shoulder belt passes underneath
the belt guide at the bottom of the
seatback. Pull the magnets apart to
release the belt guide and move the
lap and shoulder belt out of the way
of passengers entering and exiting
the rear seats.
