SEAT BELTS
This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when using
seat belts.
Seat Belt Safety Precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and make
sure all passengers have fastened their
seat belts before starting any trip. Air
bags are designed to supplement the
seat belt as an additional safety device,
but they are not a substitute. Most states
require all occupants of a vehicle to wear
seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehicle is
moving. Take the following precautions
when adjusting and wearing seat belts:

[Children under the age of 13 should
be properly restrained in the rear
seats.

[Never allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat, unless the
air bag is deactivated. If a child is
seated move the seat as far back as
possible. And the child must always
be restrained in the seat properly.

[NEVER allow an infant or child to be
carried on an occupant’s lap.

[NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is moving.

[Do not allow children to share a seat
or seat belt.

[Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back.
[Never wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the seat belt can damage it.

[Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will not
protect you properly in an accident.

[Do not use a seat belt if the webbing
or hardware is damaged.

[Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.

[NEVER unfasten the seat belt
while driving. This may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.

[Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism, because any
materials in the buckle can cause the
seat belt not to be fastened securely.

[No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate properly.
Always replace:

[Frayed, contaminated, or damaged
webbing.

[Damaged hardware.

[The entire seat belt assembly after it
has been worn in an accident, even
if damage to webbing or assembly is
not apparent.

Pre-tensioner seat belt
ORS031103
Your vehicle is equipped with driver’s and
front passenger’s and rear passengers
Pre-tensioner Seat Belts (Retractor
Pre-tensioner). The purpose of the pre-
tensioner is to make sure the seat belts
fit tightly against the occupant’s body
in certain frontal or side collision(s).
The pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in crashes where the frontal
or side collision(s) is severe enough,
together with the air bags.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if
the occupant tries to lean forward too
quickly, the seat belt retractor will lock
into position.
In certain frontal collisions, the pre-
tensioner will activate and pull the seat
belt into tighter contact against the
occupant’s body.
If the system senses excessive tension
on the driver or passenger’s seat belt
when the pre-tensioner system activates,
the load limiter inside the retractor
pre-tensioner will release some of the
pressure on the affected seat belt.

control module is connected with the
pre–tensioner seat belts. The SRS air
bag warning light on the instrument

and then it should turn off.
If the pre-tensioner is not working
properly, the warning light will
illuminate even if the SRS air bag is not
malfunctioning. If the warning light
does not illuminate, stays illuminated
or illuminates when the vehicle is being
driven, have the pre-tensioner seat
belts and/or SRS control module be
inspected by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products as soon as
possible.

not be inhaled for prolonged periods.
Wash all exposed skin areas thoroughly
after an accident in which the pre-
tensioner seat belts were activated.

Additional Seat Belt Safety
Precautions
Seat belt use during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be used
during pregnancy. The best way to
protect your unborn child is to protect
yourself by always wearing the seat belt.

a lap-shoulder seat belt. Place the
shoulder belt across your chest, routed
between your breasts and away from
your neck. Place the lap belt below your
belly so that it fits SNUGLY across your
hips and pelvic bone, under the rounded
part of the belly.

[Pregnant woman are more
vulnerable to any impacts on the
abdomen during an abrupt stop or
accident. If you are in an accident
while pregnant, consult your doctor.

death to an unborn child during an
accident, pregnant women should
NEVER place the lap portion of the
seat belt above or over the area of
the abdomen where the unborn child
is located.

Safety System
Seat belt use and injured people
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
Consult a physician for specific
recommendations.
One person per belt
Two people (including children) should
never attempt to use a single seat belt.
This could increase the severity of
injuries in case of an accident.
Do not lie down
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the protections
of your restraint system (seat belts
and/or air bags) is greatly reduced by
reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
During an accident, you could be thrown
into the seat belt, causing neck or other
injuries.
The more the seat back is reclined, the
greater the chance for the passenger’s
hips to slide under the lap belt or the
passenger’s neck to strike the shoulder
belt.
WARNING

[NEVER ride with a reclined seatback
when the vehicle is moving.

[Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious
or fatal injuries in the event of a
collision or sudden stop.

[Driver and passengers should always
sit well back in their seats with the
seatbacks upright and should be
belted properly.
Care of Seat Belts
Seat belt systems should never be
disassembled or modified. In addition,
care should be taken to assure that seat
belts and belt hardware are not damaged
by seat hinges, doors or other abuse.
Periodic inspection
All seat belts should be inspected
periodically for wear or damage of any
kind. Any damaged parts should be
replaced as soon as possible.
Keep belts clean and dry
Seat belts should be kept clean and
dry. If belts become dirty, they can be
cleaned by using a mild soap solution
and warm water. Bleach, dye, strong
detergents or abrasives should not be
used because they may damage and
weaken the fabric.
When to replace seat belts
The entire seat belt assembly or
assemblies should be replaced if the
vehicle has been involved in an accident.
This should be done even if no damage is
visible. Consult an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products.
