Getting started Driving With a smooth motion, pull the belt from the belt outlet. Place the shoulder portion of the belt across the top of your shoulder and the lap portion across your hips. Push latch plate 1 into buckle 3 until it engages. If necessary, tighten the lap portion to a snug fit by pulling shoulder portion up. Warning! G Warning! G Never let more people ride in the vehicle than there are seat belts available. Be sure everyone riding in the vehicle is correctly restrained with a separate seat belt. Never use a seat belt for more than one person at a time. Read and observe the additional warning notices printed in the "Safety and Security" section ( page 62) and ( page 69). Warning! G Never ride in a moving vehicle with the seat backrest in an excessively reclined position as this can be dangerous. You could slide under the seat belt in a collision. If you slide under it, the belt would apply force at the abdomen or neck. That could cause serious or even fatal injuries. The seat backrest and seat belt provide the best restraint when the wearer is in a nearly upright position and the belt is properly positioned on the body. 1 Latch plate 2 Release button 3 Buckle 44
