into the buckle, and tug on the

belt to make sure the belt is

securely latched.

Position the belt as low as

possible across your hips. This

lets your strong pelvic bones take

the force of a crash and reduces

the chance of internal injuries.

Pull on the loose end of the belt

for a snug but comfortable fit.

If a Seat Belt Doesn't Work

Properly

If a seat belt does not seem to

work as it should, it may not

protect the occupant in a crash.

No one should sit in a seat with

an inoperative seat belt. Anyone

using a seat belt that is not

working properly can be seriously

injured or killed. Have your

Honda dealer check the belt as

soon as possible.

for additional

information about your seat belt

system and how to take care of

your belts.

6. Adjust the Steering Wheel

Adjust the steering wheel, if

needed, so that the wheel points

toward your chest, not toward

your face.

Pointing the steering wheel

toward your chest provides

optimal protection from the

airbag.

See page

for how to adjust the

steering wheel.
