Dodge 18693 Stratus Coupe Automobile User Manual


 
SEAT BELTS
Seat belts are installed in your vehicle for the protection
of the driver and passengers.
Always use the seat belts. In an accident, injury to the
driver and passengers may be reduced if the seat belts are
properly used.
NOTE
: Legislation in your state may require seat belt
usage; however, even if it is not required seat belts should
always be used.
WARNING!
Lock all doors before driving to reduce the risk of
injury or ejection in a collision.
Seat belts should always be worn by every adult who
drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children
who are large enough to wear seat belts properly.
Never use one seat belt for more than one occupant.
Never carry more people in the vehicle than there
are seat belts.
Always adjust the belt for a snug fit.
Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder
and across your chest. Never put it behind you or
under your arm.
Always wear the lap belt as low as possible across
your hips, not around your waist.
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury in a
collision, including from a deploying driver air
bag, the driver should adjust the driver’s seat to
the rear most position that still allows good vis-
ibility and good control of the steering wheel, the
brake, accelerator, and vehicle controls.
