In a real vehicle, it could be the windshield With safety belts, you slow down as the vehicle does. You get more time to stop. You stop over more distance, and your strongest bones take the forces. That is why safety belts make such good sense. You may be an excellent driver, but if you are in a crash — even one that is not your fault — you and your passenger s can be hurt. The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on the hips, just touching the thighs. Page 23 What is wrong with this?
The shoulder belt is too loose. It will not give as much protection this way. In a crash, you would move forward too much, which could increase injury. Page 24 What is wrong with this? The lap belt is too loose. It will not give nearly as much protection this way. In a crash, you could slide under the lap belt and apply force on your abdomen.
Page 25 What is wrong with this? The belt is buckled in the wrong buckle. In a crash, the belt would go up over your abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not on the pelvic bones.
Page 26 What is wrong with this? The belt is over an armrest. The belt would be much too high. In a crash, you can slide under the belt. The belt force would then be applied on the abdomen, not on the pelvic bones, and that could cause serious or fatal injuries. Page 27 What is wrong with this? The shoulder belt is worn under the arm.
It should be worn over the shoulder at all times. In a crash, your body would move too far forward, which would increase the chance of head and neck injury. Page 28 What is wrong with this? The belt is behind the body. In a crash, you would not be restrained by the shoulder belt.
Your body could move too far forward increasing the chance of head and neck injury. Page 29 What is wrong with this? The belt is twisted across the body. In a crash, you would not have the full width of the belt to spread impact forces.
The following instructions explain how to wear a lap-shoulder belt properly. Adjust the seat, if the seat is adjustable, so you can sit up straight. Page 31 5. To make the lap part tight, pull up on the shoulder belt. It may be necessary to pull stitching on the safety belt through the latch plate to fully tighten the lap belt on smaller occupants.
To unlatch the belt, push the button on the buckle. The belt should return to its stowed position. Page 32 Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster Your vehicle has a shoulder belt height adjuster for the driver and right front passenger position. Adjust the height so that the shoulder portion of the belt is centered on the shoulder. The belt should be away from the face and neck, but not falling off of the shoulder. Page Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides Rear shoulder belt comfort guides may provide added safety belt comfort for older children who have outgrown booster seats and for some adults.
When installed on a shoulder belt, the comfort guide positions the belt away from the neck and head. Page 34 3. The elastic cord must be under the belt and the guide on top.
Buckle, position, and release the safety belt as described previously in this section. Make sure that the shoulder belt crosses the shoulder. To remove and store the comfort guide, squeeze the belt edges together so that the safety belt can be removed from the guide. When you go in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear, so the extender will be long enough for you.
Do the knees bend at the seat edge? If yes, continue. Never allow two children to wear the same safety belt. The safety belt can not properly spread the impact forces. In a crash, the two children can be crushed together and seriously injured.
A safety belt must be used by only one person at a time. This includes infants and all other children. Neither the distance traveled nor the age and size of the traveler changes the need, for everyone, to use safety restraints. In fact, the law in every state in the United States and in every Canadian province says children up to some age must be restrained while in a vehicle.
Never hold an infant or a child while riding in a vehicle. Due to crash forces, an infant or a child will become so heavy it is not possible to hold it during a crash. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the right front seat. Secure a rear-facing child restraint in a rear seat. Page 42 What are the different types of add-on child restraints?
In a crash, the belt would apply force on a body area that is unprotected by any bony structure. A booster seat can also help a child to see out the window. Page Where To Put The Restraint Where to Put the Restraint Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in the rear rather than the front seat.
We recommend that children and child restraints be secured in a rear seat, including: an infant or a child riding in a rear-facing child restraint; Page 47 Keep in mind that an unsecured child restraint can move around in a collision or sudden stop and injure people in the vehicle. Be sure to properly secure any child restraint in your vehicle — even when no child is in it. If you secure a child restraint in the left or center rear seat using LATCH, review the following illustrations.
Child restraint or occupant using safety belt A. Child restraint or occupant using safety belt B. This system is designed to make installation of a child restraint easier. There are two lower anchors for each LATCH seating position that will accommodate a child restraint with lower attachments B. Page 50 Some child restraints with top tethers are designed for use with or without the top tether being attached. Others require the top tether always to be attached.
In Canada, the law requires that forward-facing child restraints have a top tether, and that the tether be attached. Page 51 To assist you in locating the lower anchors, each rear anchor position has a label, near the crease between the seatback and the seat cushion.
To assist you in locating the top tether anchors, the top tether anchor symbol is located on the cover. In a crash, the child could be seriously injured or killed. This may damage these parts. Do not fold the empty rear seat with a safety belt buckled. Page 54 This system is designed to make installation of child restraints easier. Some restraints also use another vehicle anchor to secure a top tether. Page 55 If the position you are using does not have a headrest or head restraint and you are using a dual tether, route the tether over the seatback.
If the position you are 3. Push and pull the child restraint in different using has an adjustable headrest or head restraint and you are using a single Page 57 3.
Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor to set the lock. Position the release button on the buckle so that the safety belt could be quickly unbuckled if necessary. To tighten the belt, push down on the child restraint, pull the shoulder portion of the belt to tighten the lap portion of the belt and feed the shoulder belt back into the retractor.
When installing a forward-facing child restraint, it may be helpful to use your knee to push down on the child restraint as you tighten the belt. Page 60 Do not secure a child seat in a position without a top tether anchor if a national or local law requires that the top tether be anchored, or if the instructions that come with the child restraint say that the top strap must be anchored.
Page 61 5. To remove the child restraint, unbuckle the vehicle safety belt and let it return to the stowed position. Page 63 Here are the most important things to know about the airbag system: CAUTION: You can be severely injured or killed in a crash if you are not wearing your safety belt — even if you have airbags.
Airbags are designed to work with safety belts, but do not replace them. Airbags plus lap-shoulder belts offer protection for adults and older children, but not for young children and infants.
Driver Side shown, Passenger Side similar The seat-mounted side impact airbags for the driver and right front passenger are in the side of the seatbacks closest to the door. Page 66 Driver Side shown, Passenger Side similar The roof-rail airbags for the driver, right front passenger, and second row outboard passengers are in the ceiling above the side windows.
For seat-mounted side impact and roof-rail airbags, deployment is determined by the location and severity of the side impact. In a deployment event, the sensing system sends an electrical signal triggering a release of gas from the Page 69 The parts of the airbag that come into contact with you may be warm, but not too hot to touch.
Page Passenger Sensing System Passenger Sensing System The vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the right front passenger position.
The passenger airbag status indicator will be visible on the instrument panel when the vehicle is started. When the passenger sensing system has allowed the airbags to be enabled, the on indicator will light and stay lit to remind you that the airbags are active. Turn the vehicle off. Remove the child restraint from the vehicle. Remove any additional items from the seat such as blankets, cushions, seat covers, seat heaters, or seat massagers.
Page 74 If the Off Indicator is Lit for an Adult-Size Occupant If a person of adult-size is sitting in the right front passenger seat, but the off indicator is lit, it could be because that person is not sitting properly in the seat. Page Servicing Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle Additional Factors Affecting System Operation Safety belts help keep the passenger in position on the seat during vehicle maneuvers and braking, which helps the passenger sensing system maintain the passenger airbag status.
Page Restraint System Check Restraint System Check Checking the Restraint Systems Safety Belts Now and then, check that the safety belt reminder light, safety belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors, and anchorages are all working properly.
Look for any other loose or damaged safety belt system parts that might keep a safety belt system from doing its job. A damaged restraint system may not properly protect the person using it, 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 They could operate the power windows or other controls or even make the vehicle move. The windows will function with the keys in the ignition and children could be seriously injured or killed if caught in the path of a closing window.
