Seat Belt with Detachable Anchor
Models with second-row bench seat
1. Pull out the seat belt’s small latch plate and the
latch plate from each holding slot in the ceiling.
2. Line up the triangle marks on the small latch
plate and anchor buckle. Make sure the seat
belt is not twisted. Attach the belt to the anchor
buckle.
3. Insert the latch plate into the buckle. Properly
fasten the seat belt the same way you fasten the
lap/shoulder seat belt.
4. To unlatch the detachable anchor, insert the
latch plate into the slot on the side of the anchor
buckle.
Fastening a Seat Belt
Adjust your seat to the proper position (see page 44), and then follow the
below steps.
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly.
2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle, then tug
on the belt to make sure the buckle is secure.
Make sure that the belt is not twisted or
caught on anything. The front seat belts retract
automatically.
3. Position the lap part of the belt as low as
possible across your hips, then pull up on the
shoulder part of the belt so the lap part fits
snugly. This lets your strong pelvic bones take
the force of a crash and reduces the chance of
internal injuries.
4. If necessary, pull up on the belt again to remove
any slack, then make sure that the belt rests
across the center of your chest and over your
shoulder. This spreads the forces of a crash over
the strongest bones in your upper body.
To release the belt, push the red PRESS button
then guide the belt by hand until it has
retracted completely.
Adjusting the Shoulder Anchor
The front seats have adjustable shoulder anchors to accommodate taller and
shorter occupants.
1. Move the anchor up and down while holding the
release button.
2. Position the anchor so that the belt rests across
the center of your chest and over your shoulder.
