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
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
way as the driver’s safety belt. See “Driver Position,’’
earlier
in
this section.
When the lap portion of the belt is pulled out all the
way, it will lock.
If
it does, let it go back all the way
and
start again.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
This part explains the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) or air bag system.
Your Aurora has
two
air bags
--
one air bag for the
driver and another air bag for the right front passenger.
Here are the most important things to know about the air
bag system:

F-
You can be severely injured or killed in
a
crash if
you aren’t wearing your safety belt
--
even if you
have air bags. Wearing your safety belt during
a
crash helps reduce your chance of hitting things
inside the vehicle or being ejected from it. Air
bags are “supplemental restraints” to the safety
belts.
All
air bags are designed to work with
safety belts, but don’t replace them. Air bags are
designed to work only in moderate to severe
crashes where the front of your vehicle
hits
something. They aren’t designed to inflate at
all
in rollover, rear, side or low-speed frontal
crashes. Everyone in your vehicle should wear
a
safety belt properly
--
whether or not there’s an
air
bag for that person.
