The shoulder beltcan't do its job because it won't be against your body.Instead, it willbe in front of you. In a crash you could go into t, receivingneck or other injuries.The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crash the belt couldo up over yourabdomen. The belt forceswould be there, not at your pelvic bones. This couldcause serious internal injuries.For proper protection when the vehicle isn motion, have the seatbackupright. Then sit well back in the seat and wear your safety belt properly.

Lager Children CONI)Q: What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt, but the childs sosmall that the shoulder belts veryclose to the childs face or neck?A: Move the child toward the center ofthe vehicle, but be ure that theshoulder belt still is on the childsshoulder, so that in a crash thechilds upper body would have therestraint that belts provide.If the child isso small that theshoulder belt is still very close to thechilds faceor neck, you might wantto place the child in a seat that has alap belt, if your vehicle has one.

Never do this.A Here a child s sitting in a seatthat has a lap-shoulder belt, but theshoulder part is behind the child.If the child wears the beltn thisway, in a crash the child mightslide under the belt. he beltsforce would then be applied righton the childs abdomen. That couldcause seriousor fatal injuries.Wherever the child sits, the lap portionof the belt should be worn low andnulon the hips, ust touching the childsthighs. This applies belt force to thechilds pelvic bones in a crash.

Safety BeltExtenderIf the vehicles safety belt will fastenaround you, you should use t.But if a safety belt isnt long enough tofasten, your dealer will order you anextender. Its free. When you go in toorder it, take the heaviest coat you willwear, so the extender will be longenough for you. The extender will bejust for you, and just for the seat in yovehicle that you choose. Dont letsomeone else use it, and uset only forthe seat it is made to it. To wear it, justattach it to the regular safety belt.
