BeltAlert௡ can be enabled or disabled by your authorized

dealer. Chrysler Group LLC does not recommend deac-

tivating BeltAlert௡.
NOTE:

Although BeltAlert௡ has been deactivated, the

Seat Belt Reminder Light will continue to illuminate

while the driver’s or front passenger (if equipped with

BeltAlert௡) seat belt remains unfastened.
Seat Belts And Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts

throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is

the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt

across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.

Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the

abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take

the force if there is a collision.

Seat Belt Extender
If a seat belt is too short even when fully extended your

authorized dealer can provide you with a seat belt

extender. This extender should be used only if the

existing belt is not long enough. When it is not required,

remove the extender and store it.

WARNING!

Using a seat belt extender when not needed can
increase the risk of injury in a collision. Only use
when the seat belt is not long enough when it is worn
low and snug and in the recommended seating posi-
tion. Remove and store the extender when not
needed.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) — Air Bags
This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the

driver and front passenger as a supplement to the seat
