If only one pair of seat belt tongue and buckle, either tongue (A) and anchor buckle (B) or tongue (C) and anchor buckle (D), is fastened, the seat belt cannot provide full protection. In a sudden stop or collision, the user could slide under the belt and suffer serious injuries. Always make sure that both pairs of seat belt tongues and buckles are fastened properly. Positioning the Shoulder Portion of the Seat Belt: Improper positioning of the shoulder portion of the seat belt is dangerous. Always make sure the shoulder portion of the seat belt is positioned across your shoulder and near your neck, but never under your arm, on your neck, or on your upper arm. 4. Make sure the shoulder belt is snugly fitted against your body. qFastening the Seat Belt 1. Grasp the tongue (C). 2. Slowly pull out the lap/shoulder belt. 3. Insert the tongue (C) into the buckle (D) until you hear a click. (C) (A) WARNING Positioning the Lap Portion of the Seat Belt: The lap portion of the seat belt worn too high is dangerous.
