WARNING!
A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of
internal injury in a collision. The belt forces won’t be

it could even cut into you. Be sure the belt is straight.
If you can’t straighten a belt in your vehicle, take it to
your authorized dealer and have it fixed.

WARNING!
A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and
leave you with no protection. Inspect the 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

have been damaged (bent retractor, torn webbing,
etc.).
