introduce a small amount of slack into the seat belt,
resulting in a more comfortable ride.
1.
Slowly pull the latch end of the three-point seat
belt out of the retractor and pull it across your
lap (from outboard to inboard) far enough to en-
gage the buckle. If the retractor locks too soon,
allow the belt to retract slightly, then slowly pull it
out again.
2.
Fasten the three-point seat belt by pushing the
latch into the buckle. Listen for an audible click.
See
Fig. 5.18
.
3.
Tug on the seat belt to make sure it is securely
fastened. If the buckle unlatches, repeat this
step. If the problem continues, replace the three-
point seat belt.
4.
Snug the seat belt to your waist.
5.
Position the shoulder strap diagonally across
your chest with the adjustable D-loop bracket (if
equipped). If desired, engage the Komfort Latch
or Sliding Komfort Latch as follows.
If equipped with a Sliding Komfort Latch,
make
sure that the shoulder strap is snug against your
chest. Without loosening the shoulder strap,
push the Sliding Komfort Latch switch to the
"ON" position. See
Fig. 5.17
. To activate the
latch lean forward until you hear a click. This will
allow for approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) of slack
between your chest and the shoulder harness.
Once engaged, the latch will allow you to lean
forward about 5 inches (13 cm) without having to
reset the latch. Leaning forward more than 5
inches (13 cm) will disengage the Sliding Kom-
fort Latch, requiring it to be reset.
