Seating and Safety Restraints 89
The lap belt must NEVER pass over or around armrests,
side panels, or other devices that will prevent the belt from
lying directly on the body of the passenger.
REASON: A belt that is incorrectly secured may not fully
protect the passenger in a collision and lead to injury or
death.
4. Attach the portion of the shoulder belt with the adjuster to
the shoulder belt attachment point hanging above the rear
grab handle.
5. Attach the other end of the shoulder belt to the pin on the latch
plate of the lap belt, making sure that the belt is not twisted.
6. Buckle the lap belt and pull the belt so that the buckle is to
the right hip of the occupant, which ensure proper align-
ment with the shoulder belt. The shoulder belts should then
be tightened as firmly as is comfortably possible for the
user. See “Seat Belt Warnings” on page 75. and “Wearing
Seat Belts Properly” on page 77 for more information.
