Combination Lap and Shoulder Belts
While your vehicle is in motion, the combination lap and
shoulder belt adjusts to your movement. However, if you brake
hard, turn hard, or if your vehicle receives an impact of 5 mph (8
km/h) or more, the lap and shoulder belt locks and helps to
reduce your forward movement.
After you get into your vehicle, close the door and lock it. Then
adjust the seat to the position that suits you best.
To fasten the belt, pull the combination lap and shoulder belt
from the retractor so that the shoulder portion of the belt crosses
your shoulder and chest. Be sure the belt is not twisted. If it
is, remove the twist. Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle
until you hear a snap and feel it latch. Make sure the tongue
is securely fastened to the buckle by pulling on tongue.
