Putting on a seat belt
To fasten a seat belt in any of the four outboard seating positions
(next to a front or rear door) around an adult occupant:
Adjust the seat position if desired and if you are in the
front seat.
Reach up and take hold of the seat belt tongue that is
hanging on the pillar outboard of your seat.
Pull the tongue and seat belt smoothly across your chest
and down
to the buckle on the inboard side of your
seating position.
Insert the seat belt tongue into the buckle until it clicks.
Pull on it to ensure it is latched.
To fasten the center rear seat around an adult occupant:
Reach up and take hold of the seat belt tongue that is
resting above
and to the left (driver) side of the center
seating position.
Pull the tongue and seat belt smoothly across your chest
and down
to the buckle on the right (passenger) side of
your seating position.
Insert the seat belt tongue into the buckle until it clicks.
Pull on it to ensure it is latched.
In all ve seating positions:
Make sure that the webbing is not twisted and that it lies
at across the body.
Make sure that the lap portion of the webbing is low and
tight across
the hips. Do not let it pass over the
abdomen.
Make sure that the shoulder webbing is in front of the
chest, never behind.
Pregnant occupants must wear the lap belt as low as
possible below
the abdomen. Never let the lap belt pass
over or above the baby.
