y Place the lap belt as low as possible on the
child’s hips. A high-positioned lap belt will in-
crease the risk of sliding under the lap belt and
of the lap belt sliding up over the abdomen, and
both can result in serious internal injury or
death.
y Make sure the shoulder belt is positioned
across the center of child’s shoulder. Placing
the shoulder belt over the neck may result in
neck injury during sudden braking or in a colli-
sion.
*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint
System airbag)
*SRS: This stands for supplemental restraint system.
This name is used because the airbag system supple-
ments the vehicle’s seatbelts.
Vehicle with driver’s and front passen-
ger’s SRS airbags and lap/shoulder re-
straints
Your vehicle is equipped with a supplemental restraint
system in addition to a lap/shoulder belt at each front
seating position.
The supplemental restraint system (SRS) consists of
two airbags (driver’s and front passenger’s frontal air-
bags).
These SRS airbags are designed only as a supple-
ment to the primary protection provided by the
seatbelt.
The system also controls front seatbelt pretensioners.
For operation, instructions are precautions concerning
the seatbelt pretensioner, see the “Front seatbelt pre-
tensioners” section in this chapter.
