The best way to protect the fetus is to protect 
the mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, 
it’s more likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash.
For pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them properly.

Right Front Passenger Position

To learn how to wear the right front passenger’s 
safety belt properly, see “Driver Position” earlier 
in this section.

The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
way as the driver’s safety belt 

--

 except for one thing. 

If you ever pull the shoulder portion of the belt out all
the way, you will engage the child restraint locking
feature. If this happens, just let the belt go back all the
way and start again.

Air Bag Systems

This part explains the frontal and side impact air 
bag systems.

Your vehicle has air bags 

--

 a frontal air bag for the

driver and another frontal air bag for the right front
passenger. Your vehicle may also have a side impact 
air bag for the driver.

If your vehicle has a side impact air bag for the driver it
will say AIR BAG on the air bag covering on the side of
the driver’s seatback closest to the door.

Frontal air bags are designed to help reduce the risk 
of injury from the force of an inflating frontal air bag.
But these air bags must inflate very quickly to do their
job and comply with federal regulations.
