Seating and Safety Restraints
136
Safety restraints precautions
Always drive and ride with
your seatback upright and
the lap belt snug and low across
the hips.
To reduce the risk of injury,
make sure children sit
where they can be properly
restrained.
Always transport children
12 years old and under in
the back seat and always use
appropriate child restraints.
Never let a passenger hold a
child on his or her lap while
the vehicle is moving. The
passenger cannot protect the
child from injury in a collision.
All occupants of the vehicle,
including the driver, should
always properly wear their safety
belts, even when an air bag SRS is
provided.
Reclining the seat back can
reduce the effectiveness of
the seat's safety belt in the event
of a collision.
