SEATS AND RESTRAINTS

Lap-Shoulder Belt
All seating positions in the vehicle
have a lap-shoulder belt.
If you are using a rear seating position
with a detachable seat belt and the
seat belt is not attached, see
for instructions on
reconnecting the seat belt to the
mini-buckle.
The following instructions explain
how to wear a lap-shoulder belt
properly.
1. Adjust the seat, if the seat is
adjustable, so you can sit up
straight. To see how, see
“
Seats
”
in
the Index.
2. Pick up the latch plate and pull the
belt across you. Do not let it get
twisted.
The lap-shoulder belt may lock if
you pull the belt across you very
quickly. If this happens, let the belt
go back slightly to unlock it. Then
pull the belt across you more
slowly.
If the shoulder portion of a
passenger belt is pulled out all the
way, the child restraint locking
feature may be engaged. See
. If this
occurs, let the belt go back all the
way and start again. If the locking
feature stays engaged after letting
the belt go back to stowed position
on the seat, move the seat rearward
or recline the seat until the
shoulder belt retractor lock
releases.
Engaging the child restraint locking
feature in the front outboard
seating position may affect the
passenger sensing system. See
.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckle
until it clicks.
Pull up on the latch plate to make
sure it is secure.
If the belt is not long enough, see
.
