How to Extract Seatbelts in the Rear
Outboard Positions
Seatbelts in the rear outboard positions can
lock if the seatback is returned firmly to its
upright position. You can unlock the
seatbelts using the following procedures.
For vehicles where the rear seats recline:
1. Recline the seat to its full rear recline
position.
2. The seatbelt should then unlock.
3. Return the seatback to its desired upright
position.
For vehicles with rear seats that do not
recline or are locked with the seat in its full
rear recline position:
1. Grasp the seatbelt webbing at the top of
the seatback.
2. Pull the seatbelt webbing forward, firmly.
3. After pulling the seatbelt forward, allow
the seatbelt to feed back into the seatbelt
retractor as much as possible. If
necessary, press the seatback down to
allow the seatbelt webbing to retract
further.
4. The seatbelt should then unlock.
5. If the seatbelt does not unlock, repeat
steps 1-3.
SEATBELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
Position the seatbelt height adjuster

seatbelt properly could reduce the
effectiveness of the seatbelt and increase
the risk of injury in a crash.
E146191
To adjust the shoulder belt height, squeeze
the button and slide the height adjuster up
or down. Release the button and pull down
on the height adjuster to make sure it is
locked in place.
