If the webbing locks in the latch plate
before it reaches the buckle, tilt the latch
plate flat to unlock.

enough, see
Position the release button on the buckle
so that the seat belt could be quickly
unbuckled if necessary.

later in this section for
instructions on use and important safety

5. To make the lap part tight, pull up on
the shoulder belt.
It may be necessary to pull stitching on the
seat belt through the latch plate to fully
tighten the lap belt on smaller occupants.
To unlatch the belt, push the button on the
buckle. The belt should return to its stowed
position.
Always stow the seat belt slowly. If the seat
belt webbing returns quickly to the stowed
position, the retractor may lock and cannot
be pulled out. If this happens, pull the seat
belt straight out firmly to unlock the
webbing, and then release it. If the webbing
is still locked in the retractor, see your
dealer.
Before a door is closed, be sure the seat belt
is out of the way. If a door is slammed
against a seat belt, damage can occur to
both the seat belt and the vehicle.
