Too high
Keep as low on hip
bone as possible.
1. Before sitting in the seat, adjust both seatbacks to the upright posi-
tion.
2. Sit well back in the seat and pick up the tongue plate marked
“CENTER”. Be careful not to twist the belt.
3. Insert the tongue plate into the buckle marked “CENTER” until you
hear a click. The tongue plate marked “CENTER” can be fastened
only into the buckle marked “CENTER”. If the belt is not long enough
for you, hold the tongue plate at a right angle to the belt and pull the
belt to extend.
4. To make the belt tight, pull up on the belt. And place the lap belt as
low as possible on your hips, not your waist.

WARNING
When wearing the front seatbelts, make sure the shoulder portion
of the webbing does not pass over your neck. If it does, adjust
the seatbelt anchor to a lower position. Placing the shoulder belt
over the neck may result in neck injury during sudden braking or
in a collision.
