regular latch plate into the center red slot on the mini-buckle. The seat belt will
automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary, slide the latch plate
down the webbing to allow the seat belt to retract fully. Insert the mini-latch
plate and regular latch plate into its stowed position.
WARNING!
• If the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle are not properly connected when the seat
belt is used by an occupant, the seat belt will not be able to provide proper
restraint and will increase the risk of injury in a collision.
• When reattaching the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle, ensure the seat belt
webbing is not twisted. If the webbing is twisted, follow the preceding procedure
to detach the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle, untwist the webbing, and
reattach the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle.
