WARNING
l
Seat belts should always be worn by every
adult who drives or rides in this vehicle,
and by all children who are tall enough to
wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper
child restraint systems.
l
Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
it behind you or under your arm.
l
One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger-
ous.
l
The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat-
back is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or
seatbacks.
l
Remove any twists when using the belt.
l
No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre-
vent the seat belt adjusting devices from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
l
Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do so
risks severe or fatal injury to the child in
a collision or sudden stop.
WARNING
l
Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.
l
Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.
3-point type seat belt (with
emergency locking mechanism)
E00404902699
This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to the
movement of the wearer, but in the event of a
sudden or strong shock, the belt automatical-
ly locks to hold the wearer’s body.
NOTE
l
You can check if the belt locks by pulling it
forward quickly.
l
If the seat belt buckles in the rear seating po-
sition are not found, you will find them un-
der the rear seat cushion. Refer to “Making a
luggage area” on page 5-07 for how to put
the seat belt buckles at the proper position.
To fasten
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly while hold-
ing the latch plate.
NOTE
l
When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a
locked condition, pull the belts once force-
fully and then return them. After that, pull
the belts out slowly once again.
2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle until
a “click” is heard.
WARNING
l
Never wear the lap portion of the belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can press sharply against the abdomen
and increase the risk of injury.
l
The seat belts must not be twisted when
worn.
3. Pull the belt slightly to adjust slackness
as desired.
