your hips, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the
lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt. To loosen
the lap belt if it is too tight, pull on the lap belt. A snug
seat belt reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in
a collision.

comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor

9. To release the seat belt, push the red button on the
buckle.
10. To disengage the mini-latch plate from the mini-buckle
for storage, insert the regular latch plate into the black
button on the top of the mini-buckle. The seat belt will

sary, slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow
the seat belt to retract fully. Insert the mini-latch plate
and regular latch plate into its stowed position.
