Dodge 18693 Stratus Coupe Automobile User Manual


 
Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help
protect you and your passengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety device. When
worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious
injury or death in various types of crashes. For added
protection during a severe frontal collision, your vehicle
has a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) with air bags
for the driver and front seat passenger. The seats, head
restraints, and door locks also are safety equipment,
which must be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:
7. Everyone in the vehicle is properly wearing their seat
belt.
8. Infants and small children are properly secured in
appropriate child restraints in the rear seat.
9. All doors are closed and locked.
10. Seat backs are fully upright, with head restraints
properly adjusted.
No safety equipment can prevent all injuries or deaths
that can occur in severe collisions, but by making sure all
your passengers follow the instructions in this manual,
you can help reduce the risk of injury.
FRONT SEATS
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible to a
position that enables you to fully apply the pedals, easily
control the steering wheel, safely operate the vehicle and
also gives you a clear frontal view.
