clock DODGE VIPER 2004 ZB / 2.G Owners Manual

Six Point Belt Operating Instructions
With the anti-submarining belt placed on the seat point-
ing up, buckle the left and right lap belts and strap both
legs. Buckle the left and right shoulder belts. Adjust the
belts by pulling on the web ends and/or re-positioning
the web clips and straps as required. Release the belts by
turning the belt latch mechanism
1¤4turn in either the
clockwise or counter-clockwise direction.
NOTE:The anti-submarining belt and the shoulder belt
are attached to eye bolts at designated locations and
should be removed from the vehicle when not in use. The
lap belts and straps can be stored behind or to the sides
of the seat after removal.
Seat Belts and Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts
throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the
abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.
Seat Belt Extender
If a seat belt is too short, even when fully extended, your
dealer can provide you with a seat belt extender. This
extender should be used only if the existing belt is not
long enough.

could cause it to fail when you need it. You could
be injured because the airbag is not there to
protect you. Do not modify the components or
wiring, including adding any kind of badges or
stickers to the airbag covers. Do not modify the
front bumper or vehicle body structure.
²You need proper knee impact protection in a
collision. Do not mount or locate any aftermarket
equipment on or behind the knee impact bolsters.
²You can be injured if you are too close to either
airbag cover when the airbags inflate. It is dan-
gerous to try to repair any part of the airbag
system yourself. Don't try to repair the airbag

The normal operating voltage is from 12 to 14
volts with the engine running. If the pointer
remains at either the high or low ends of the
