Adjusting the rear seat shoulder belt anchor
height (window-side seating positions only)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be adjusted to
the position best suited for you.
To lower the anchor height, push the release button
and slide the anchor down.
To raise the anchor height, slide the anchor up. Pull
down on the anchor to make sure that it is locked in
place.
Always adjust the anchor height so that the shoulder
belt passes over the middle of the shoulder without
touching the neck.
When wearing the seatbelts, make sure the
shoulder portion of the webbing does not pass
over your neck. If it does, adjust the seatbelt an-
chor to a lower position. Placing the shoulder
belt over the neck may result in neck injury dur-
ing sudden braking or in a collision.
Unfastening the seatbelt
Push the button on the buckle.
Before closing the door, make sure that the belts are
retracted properly to avoid catching the belt webbing
