The best way
to
protect the fetus
is
to protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it’s more
likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key
to
making
safety belts effective
is
wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
To learn how to wear the right front passenger’s safety
belt properly, see
Driver Position
on
page
I-
16.
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
way as the driver’s safety belt
-
except for one
thing. If you ever pull the shoulder portion of the belt
out
all the way, you will engage the child restraint locking
feature. If this happens, just let the belt go back all
the way and start again.
Center Passenger Position
4-Door
Models
Lap
Belt
When you sit in the center seating position, you have a
lap safety belt, which has no retractor. The word
“CENTER”
is
on both the buckle and latch plate.
Also,
the center buckle and latch plate are a different
color than the two outboard buckles and latch plates. To
make the belt longer,
tilt
the latch plate and pull
it
along the belt.
