WARNING:

Riding with a reclined seatback

increases your chance of serious or

fatal injuries in the event of a collision or

sudden stop. The protection of your

restraint system (seat belts and airbags)

is greatly reduced by reclining your seat.

Seat belts must be snug against your

hips and chest to work properly. The

more the seatback is reclined, the greater

the chance that an occupant's hips will

slide under the lap belt causing serious

internal injuries or the occupant's neck

could strike the shoulder belt. Drivers

and passengers should always sit well

back in their seats, properly belted (see

page 1-24), and with the seatbacks

upright.

Injured Person

A seat belt should be used when an injured

person is being transported. When this is

necessary, you should consult a physician

for recommendations.

B150F01A-AAT

One Person Per Belt

Two people (including children) should

never attempt to use a single seat belt. This

could increase the severity of injuries in

case of an accident.

B150G02A-AAT

Do Not Lie Down

To reduce the chance of injuries in the

event of an accident and to achieve

maximum effectiveness of the restraint

system, all passengers should be sitting

up and the front seats should be in an

upright position when the car is moving. A

seat belt cannot provide proper protection

if the person is lying down in the rear seat

or if the front seat is in a reclined position.

B150D01A-AAT

Pregnant Women

The use of a seat belt is recommended for

pregnant women to lessen the chance of

injury in an accident. When a seat belt is

used, the lap belt portion should be placed

as low and snugly as possible on the hips,

not across the abdomen. For specific

recommendations, consult a physician.
