some safety features can
contribute to injuries if they are
not used properly.
Seat Belts
For your safety, and the safety of
your passengers, your vehicle is
equipped with seat belts in all
seating positions.
Your seat belt system
also includes a light on
the instrument panel to remind
you and your passengers to fasten
your seat belts.
Why Wear Seat Belts
Seat belts are the single most
effective safety device for adults
and larger children. (Infants and
smaller children must be
restrained in child seats.)
Not wearing a seat belt properly
increases the chance of serious
injury or death in a crash, even
though your vehicle has airbags.
In addition, most states and
Canadian provinces require you to
wear seat belts.
When properly worn, seat belts:
Keep you connected to the
vehicle so you can take
advantage of the vehicle's
built-in safety features.
Help protect you in almost
every type of crash, including
side and rear impacts and
rollovers. In a rollover crash,
an unbelted person is more
likely to die than a person
wearing a seat belt. Your airbag
can only be helpful in a
moderate to severe frontal
collision.
Help keep you from being
thrown against the inside of the
vehicle and against other
occupants.
Keep you from being thrown
out of the vehicle.
Driver and Passenger Safety
Not wearing a seat belt
properly increases the chance
of serious injury or death in a
crash, even if you have
airbags.
Be sure you and your
passengers always wear seat
belts and wear them properly.
