How
to Wear Safety Belts Properly
Adults
This part is only for people of adult size.
Be aware that there are special things to know about safety
belts and children.
And
there
are
different rules for smaller
children and babies.
If
a child
will
be ridmg
in
your
vehicle, see the
part
of
this
manual called “Children.”
Follow those rules for everyone’s protection.

vehicle has.

This part describes the driver’s restraint system.
Lap-Shoulder
Belt
The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear
it properly.
1.
Close
and
lock the door.
2.
Adjust the seat (to see how, see “Seats” in the Index)
so you can sit up straight.
3.
Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across
you.
Don’t let it get twisted.
When the lap portion of the belt is pulled out all the
way, it will lock. If it does, let it go back all the way
and start again. See “Lap Belt Cinch Feature” in
the Index.
4.
Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
