Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has safety belt
pretensioners for front outboard
occupants. Although the safety
belt pretensioners cannot be seen,
they are part of the safety belt
assembly. They can help tighten the
safety belts during the early stages
of a moderate to severe frontal and
near frontal crash and will deploy in
side, rear and rollover events if the
threshold conditions for pretensioner
activation are met.
Pretensioners work only once.
If the pretensioners activate in a
crash, they will need to be replaced,
and probably other new parts for
the vehicle's safety belt system.

Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides
This vehicle may have rear shoulder
belt comfort guides for the outboard
passenger positions in the rear
seat. If not, they are available
through your dealer. The guides
may provide added safety belt
comfort for older children who have
outgrown booster seats and for
some adults. When installed on a
shoulder belt, and properly adjusted,
the comfort guide positions the belt
away from the neck and head.
Here is how to install a comfort
guide to the safety belt:
1. Remove the guide from its
storage pocket on the side
of the seat.
2. Place the guide over the belt,
and insert the two edges of the
belt into the slots of the guide.
