Lap-Shoulder
Belt
Here’s how to wear a lap-shoulder belt properly.
If
the belt is
not
long enough, see
Safety
Belt
Extender
on
page
1-47.
Make sure the release button on the buckle
is
positioned
so
you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly
if
you ever had
to.
1.
Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.
2.
Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
Don’t
let
it get twisted.
Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure.
When the shoulder belt
is
pulled out all the way,
it
will lock.
If
it does, let it
go
back all the way and
start again.
3.
To make the lap part tight, pull down on the buckle
end
of
the belt as you pull up on the shoulder part.
