SEAT BELT SYSTEMS

Lap/Shoulder Belts

• All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your

abdomen. To remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt. To loosen

the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug seat belt

reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision.

• Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so

that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack

in the shoulder belt.

Seat Belt Pretensioner

• The front seat belt system is equipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to

remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.

• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.

WARNING!

• In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are

not properly buckled up. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other

passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others

in your vehicle are buckled up properly.

• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision.

You are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder
belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together.

• A seat belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop, you could

move too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.

• A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no

protection. Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or
loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or
modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision.
