In addition, the retractor is designed to
lock if the webbing is pulled out too
quickly. If this occurs, let the belt retract
slightly and pull webbing out again in a
slow and controlled manner.
Automatic Locking Mode
In this mode, the shoulder belt is
automatically pre-locked. The belt will still
retract to remove any slack in the shoulder
belt. The automatic locking mode is not
available on the driver safety belt.
When to Use the Automatic Locking
Mode
This mode should be used any time a child
safety seat, except a booster, is installed
in passenger front or rear seating
positions. Children 12 years old and under
should be properly restrained in a rear
seating position whenever possible. See
Child Safety (page 14).
