After the adjuster is set to the

Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle may have 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, near
frontal, side, or rear crash if the
threshold conditions for pretensioner
activation are met. And, for vehicles
with roof-rail airbags, safety belt
pretensioners can help tighten the
safety belts in a rollover event.
Pretensioners, if equipped, work
only once. If the pretensioners
activate in a crash, the
pretensioners and probably other
new parts of the vehicle's safety belt
system will need to be replaced.

Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides
Rear safety belt comfort 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, the comfort guide
positions the shoulder belt away
from the neck and head.
Safety belt comfort guides are
available through your dealer.
To install the adjustable comfort
guide to the seatback and the
safety belt:
1. Locate the anchor loop on the
rear outboard seatback, near
the top.
