WARNING! (Continued)
• Two people should never be belted into a single
seat belt. People belted together can crash into
one another in a collision, hurting one another
badly. Never use a lap/shoulder belt or a lap belt
for more than one person, no matter what their
size.
• A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of
injury in a collision.The seat belt forces won’t be
at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across
your abdomen.Always wear the lap part of your
seat belt as low as possible and keep it snug.
• A twisted seat belt may not protect you prop-
erly. In a collision, it could even cut into you. Be
sure the seat belt is flat against your body, with-
out twists. If you can’t straighten a seat belt in
your vehicle, take it to your authorized dealer
immediately and have it fixed.
• A seat belt that is buckled into the wrong
buckle will not protect you properly. The lap
portion could ride too high on your body,possibly
causing internal injuries.Always buckle your seat
belt into the buckle nearest you.
