Seat Belt Use During
Pregnancy
Seat belts work for everyone,
including pregnant women. Like all
occupants, they are more likely to
be seriously injured if they do not
wear seat belts.
A pregnant woman should wear a
lap-shoulder belt, and the lap
portion should be worn as low as
possible, below the rounding,
throughout the pregnancy.
The best way to protect the fetus is
to protect the mother. When a seat
belt is worn properly, it is more likelythat the fetus will not be hurt in a
crash. For pregnant women, as for
anyone, the key to making seat
belts effective is wearing them
properly.
Seat Belt Extender
If the vehicle's seat belt will fasten
around you, you should use it.
But if a seat belt is not long enough,
your dealer will order you an
extender. When you go in to order it,
take the heaviest coat you will wear,
so the extender will be long enough
for you. To help avoid personal
injury, do not let someone else use
it, and use it only for the seat it is
made to fit. The extender has been
designed for adults. Never use it for
securing child restraints. For more
information on the proper use and fit
of seat belt extenders see the
instruction sheet that comes with
the extender.
Safety System Check
Periodically check the seat belt
reminder, seat belts, buckles, latch
plates, retractors, shoulder beltheight adjusters (if equipped), and
seat belt anchorages to make sure
they are all in working order. Look
for any other loose or damaged seat
belt system parts that might keep a
seat belt system from performing
properly. See your dealer to have it
repaired. Torn, frayed, or twisted
seat belts may not protect you in a
crash. Torn or frayed seat belts can
rip apart under impact forces. If a
belt is torn or frayed, have it
replaced immediately. If a belt is
twisted, it may be possible to
untwist by reversing the latch plate
on the webbing. If the twist cannot
be corrected, ask your dealer to
fix it.
Make sure the seat belt reminder
light is working. See
Seat Belt
Reminders 099.
Keep seat belts clean and dry. See
Seat Belt Care 061.
Seat Belt Care
Keep belts clean and dry.
Seat belts should be properly cared
for and maintained.

{Warning
Remove all objects from the
charging pocket before charging
your compatible smartphone.
Objects, such as coins, keys,

the rare occasion that the
charging system does not detect
an object, and the object gets
wedged between the smartphone

smartphone and allow the object
to cool before removing it from
the charging pocket, to prevent
burns.
To charge a compatible smartphone:

objects between the
smartphone and charging
pocket.
2. Place the smartphone with screen facing out of the
charging pocket.
To maximize the charge rate,

A thick smartphone case may
prevent the wireless charger from working, or may reduce
the charging performance. See
your dealer for additional
information.
3. A green

This indicates that the
smartphone is properly

charging pad is clear of any
objects and that the
smartphone is capable of
wireless charging before
repositioning it. If a smartphone
is placed in the charging
pocket and
$does not appear,
remove the smartphone from
the pocket, turn it 180 degrees,
and wait three seconds before
inserting the smartphone in the
pocket again.
The smartphone may become
warm during charging. This is
normal. In warmer
