THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WARNING
•
Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous.
The shoulder belt will not be against your
body. In an accident, you could be thrown into
it and receive neck or other serious injuries.
You could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious internal injuries.
•
For the most effective protection when the
vehicle is in motion, the seat should be up-
right. Always sit well back in the seat with
both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt
properly.
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (See “Seats” earlier in this sec-
tion.)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and
insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear
and feel the latch engage.
•
The retractor is designed to lock during a
sudden stop or on impact. A slow pulling
motion permits the belt to move and al-
lows you some freedom of movement in
the seat.
•
If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its
fully retracted position, firmly pull the belt
and release it. Then smoothly pull the belt
out of the retractor.
3. Position the lap belt portion low and snug on
the hips as shown
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retrac-
tor to take up extra slack. Be sure the shoulder
belt is routed over your shoulder and across your
chest.
Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, push the button on the
buckle. The seat belt automatically retracts.
