SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
4. If equipped with a shoulder belt
height adjuster, move it to the
height that is right for you. See
“
Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
”
in this section for instructions on
use and important safety
information.
5. To make the lap part tight, pull
up on the shoulder belt.
For third row seats, it may be
necessary to pull stitching on the
seat belt through the latch plate
to fully tighten the lap belt on
smaller occupants.
To unlatch the belt, push the button
on the buckle. The belt should return
to its stowed position.
For third row seats, slide the latch
plate up the safety webbing when the
seat belt is not in use. The latch plate
should rest on the stitching on the
seat belt.
Always stow the seat belt slowly. If the
seat belt webbing returns quickly to
the stowed position, the retractor may
lock and cannot be pulled out. If this
happens, pull the seat belt straight out
firmly to unlock the webbing, and
then release it. If the webbing is still
locked in the retractor, see your
dealer.
Before a door is closed, be sure the
seat belt is out of the way. If a door is
slammed against a seat belt, damage
can occur to both the seat belt and
the vehicle.
Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
The vehicle has a shoulder belt height
adjuster for the driver and front
outboard passenger seating positions.
Adjust the height so the shoulder
portion of the belt is on the shoulder
and not falling off of it. The belt
should be close to, but not contacting,
the neck. Improper shoulder belt
height adjustment could reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt in a
crash. See
