The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on the hips, just touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic bones. The shoulder belt is too loose. In a crash, you would move forward too much, which could increase injury. The shoulder belt should fit against your body.
Page 26 What's wrong with this? You can be seriously injured if your belt is buckled in the wrong place like this. In a crash, the belt would go up over your abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not at the pelvic bones. You can be seriously injured by a twisted belt. If a belt is twisted, make it straight so it can work properly, or ask your dealer to fix it.

To remove and store the comfort guides, squeeze the belt edges together so that you can take them out of the guides. What is the proper way to wear safety belts? If possible, an older child should wear a lap-shoulder belt and get the additional restraint a shoulder belt can provide. Page 37 Never do this.
Here two children are wearing the same belt. In a crash, the two children can be crushed together and seriously injured. A belt must be used by only one person at a time. Page 38 Never do this. Here a child is sitting a seat that has a lap-shoulder belt, but the shoulder part is behind the child.
Page 39 People should never hold a baby in their arms while riding in a vehicle. During a crash a baby will become so heavy it is not possible to hold it. Page 40 Children who are up against, or very close to, any air bag when inflates can be seriously injured or killed.
Air bags plus lap-shoulder belts offer outstanding protection for adults and older children, but not for young children and infants. Page 41 What are the different types of add-on child restraints? Page 42 The body structure of a young child is quite unlike that of an adult or older child, for whom the safety belts are designed. Page 43 A rear-facing infant seat B provides restraint with the seating surface against the back of the infant. The harness system holds the infant in place and, in a crash, acts to keep the infant positioned in the restraint.
Page 45 When choosing a child restraint, be sure the child restraint is designed to be used in a vehicle. If it is, it will have a label saying that it meets federal motor vehicle safety standards. Then follow the instructions for the restraint. You may find these instructions on the restraint itself or in a booklet, or both.

The light tells you if there is an electrical problem. See Air Bag Readiness Light on page for more information. Page 59 If something is between an occupant and an air bag, the bag might not inflate properly or it might force the object into that person causing severe injury or even death. The path of an inflating air bag must be kept clear. Page 60 In any particular crash, no one can say whether an air bag should have inflated simply because of the damage to a vehicle or because of what the repair costs were.
For frontal air bags, inflation is determined by the angle of the impact and how quickly the vehicle slows down in frontal and near-frontal impacts. After the air bag inflates, it quickly deflates, so quickly that some people may not even realize the air bag inflated. Some components of the air bag module will be hot for a short time.
Page 62 In many crashes severe enough to inflate an air bag, windshields are broken by vehicle deformation. Additional windshield breakage may also occur from the right front passenger air bag. Air bags are designed to inflate only once. There are parts of the air bag systems in several places around your vehicle. Your dealer and the service manual have information about servicing your vehicle and the air bag systems. Page Restraint System Check Restraint System Check Checking Your Restraint Systems Now and then, make sure the safety belt reminder light and all your belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and anchorages are working properly.
Look for any other loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If you see anything that might keep a safety belt system from doing job, have it repaired. A damaged restraint system may not properly protect the person using resulting in serious injury or even death in a crash. To help make sure your restraint systems are working properly after a crash, have them inspected and any necessary replacements made as soon as possible.
