Fastening the Seat Belt
• Adjust the seat as required and sit
straight and well back in the seat.
• To fasten the seat belt, pull out the
belt from the retractor and insert the
metal tab into the buckle. A “click”
sound comes when the tab locks into
the buckle.
• The seat belt automatically adjusts
to the proper length only after the lap
belt portion is adjusted manually so
that it fits snugly around the hips
• If the passenger leans forward in
slow motion, the belt will extend and
allow the passenger to move around.
If there is a sudden jerk or impact,
the belt will lock into position. It will
also lock if the passenger tries to
lean forward too quickly
• If you are not able to pull out the
seatbelt from the retractor, firmly pull
the belt out and release it. Then you
will be able to pull the belt out
smoothly
