The following are reasons most often given for not wearing safety belts (All statistics based on U.S. data): Reasons given... Consider ... “Crashes are rare events” 36700 crashes occur every day . The more we drive, the more we are exposed to “rare” events, even for good drivers. 1i n4o fu sw i l lb e seriously injured in a crash during our[...]

Reasons given... Consider ... “I have an airbag” Airbags offer greater protection when used with safety belts. Frontal airbags are not designed to inflate in rear and side crashes or rollovers. “I’d rather be thrown clear” Not a good idea. People who are ejected are 40 times more likely to DIE. Safety belts help prevent ejection, WE CAN?[...]

AIRBAG SUPPLEMENT AL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) The airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) is designed to work in conjunction with the safety belts to help protect the driver and front outboard passenger from certain upper body injuries. The term “supplemental restraint” means the airbags are intended as a supplement to the safety belts. Airbag[...]

W ARNING: Do not place any object between an occupant and an airbag or near any other airbag covering. The airbag may not inflate properly and might force an object into that person causing severe injury or death. The instrument panel grab handle should never be used for storage. The path of an inflating airbag must be kept clear at all times. W AR[...]

W ARNING: Modifying or adding equipment to the front end of the vehicle (including frame, bumper , front end body structure and tow hooks) may affect the performance of the airbag system, increasing the risk of injury .

automotive safety experts known as the Side Airbag T echnical W orking Group. These recommended testing procedures help reduce the risk of injuries related to the deployment of side airbags. The side airbag system consists of the following: • An inflatable nylon bag (airbag) with a gas generator concealed behind the outboard bolster of the driver[...]

W ARNING: If the side airbag has deployed, the airbag will not function again. The side airbag system (including the seat) must be inspected and serviced by an authorized dealer . If the airbag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision. Safety Canopy 姞 System W ARNING: Do not place objects or mount equip[...]

W ARNING: All occupants of the vehicle including the driver should always wear their safety belts even when an airbag SRS and Safety Canopy 威 system is provided.

Perform the following steps to attach a child safety seat to the tether anchor: 1. Route the tether strap under the head restraint and between the head restraint posts. For vehicles with adjustable head restraints, route the tether strap under the head restraint and between the head restraint posts, otherwise route the tether strap over the top of [...]

3. Clip the tether strap to the anchor as shown. If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly , the child safety seat may not be retained properly in the event of a collision. 4.

Booster seats position a child so that vehicle lap/shoulder safety belts fit better . They lift the child up so that the lap belt rests low across the hips and the knees bend comfortably at the edge of the cushion, while minimizing slouching. Booster seats may also make the shoulder belt fit better and more comfortably . T ry to keep the belt near [...]

T ypes of booster seats There are generally two types of belt-positioning booster seats: backless and high back. Always use booster seats in conjunction with the vehicle lap/shoulder belt. • Backless booster seats If your backless booster seat has a removable shield, remove the shield. If a vehicle seating position has a low seat back or no head [...]

Children and booster seats vary in size and shape. Choose a booster that keeps the lap belt low and snug across the hips, never up across the stomach, and lets you adjust the shoulder belt to cross the chest and rest snugly near the center of the shoulder . The drawings below compare the ideal fit (center) to a shoulder belt uncomfortably close to [...]

Follow all instructions provided by the manufacturer of the booster seat. W ARNING: Never place, or allow a child to place, the shoulder belt under a child’ s arm or behind the back because it reduces the protection for the upper part of the body and may increase the risk of injury or death in a collision.
