PART 5: SEAT AND RESTRAINT SYSTEMS SEAT BELTS AND THEIR PROPER USE
(R05/10) Y53-6032 – 77 –
Improperly worn belt
The shoulder portion should fit snugly across your body. It
should always be worn over the shoulder next to the door.
It you put the belt under your arm, it can’t protect you
properly
WARNING! Always wear your seat belt low
over your pelvic bones.
• You can be killed or seriously injured if your
belt is buckled too high. In a crash, it would
apply force to your abdomen, not your pel-
vic bones. This can result in death or seri-
ous internal injuries.
