To buckle, pull the belt slowly across your body until the latch plate can be inserted into the buckle with
a discernable snap. Take care that the belt does not twist.
To release, depress the red button on the buckle and let the belt rewind to its rest position.
The seat belts are normally "unlocked" to allow movement while seated. However, the belt will lock and
restrict movement:
●
if belt is pulled out rapidly
●
during braking or acceleration
●
if the vehicle is leaning excessively
●
when driving in turns
Check seat belt mechanism function as follows:
●
Attach the seat belt. Pull heavily on the strap.
●
Brake hard from approximately 30 mph (50 km/h) or drive in a tight circle (check other traffic first!).
Pull the belt.
In these cases the belt should not be able to be pulled out.
