The Seat Belt System and How It Works
Seat Belt System Components
Your Honda has lap/shoulder seat
belts in all four seating positions.
Your seat belt system also includes
a light on the instrument panel to
remind you to fasten your seat belt,
and to make sure your passengers
fasten theirs. This light comes on
when you turn on the ignition if
you have not fastened your seat
belt. A beeper also sounds for
several seconds (see page 33).
The following pages cover more
about the
seat belt components and
how they work.
Lap/Shoulder Belt
This style of seat belt has a single
belt that goes over your shoulder,
across your chest, and across your
hips.
Each lap/shoulder belt has an
emergency locking retractor. In
normal driving, the retractor lets
you move freely in your seat while
it keeps some tension on the belt.
During a collision or sudden stop,
the retractor automatically locks
the belt to help restrain your body.
