Front Seat  Lap-Shoulder 
Belt 
Combination 
• Adjust  front seat to satisfaction 
of  driver  and sit erect  and well 
back  in seat. 
• In  a single  motion , pull  the lap
shoulder  belt webbing  across lap 
far  enough 
to permit  inserting 
metal  latch plate  end of belt  into 
the  buckle,  until a snap 
is heard. 
If webbing is not  pulled  out far 
enough  to reach  buckle,  let lap 
belt  rewind  into its retractor  to 
release  lock mechanism, 
so belt 
can  be pulled  out to the  proper 
length. 
• Position "lap" portion  of belt 
across  lap 
as LOW ON HIPS as 
possible.  To reduce  the risk  of 
sliding  under belt during  an 
ac-
cident,  adjust to a SNUG FIT 
by  pulling  belt firmly  across  lap 
in  direction  of lap  belt  retractor 
so  it can  take  up slack.  The belt 
retractors  are designed  to 
auto
matically take up excess  webbing 
and  maintain  tension on the  belt.

• The  front  seat shoulder  belts in 
this  vehicle  are equipped  with a 
"vehicle sensitive retractor" 
which is designed  to grip  the 
belt 
only during  a sudden  stop 
or  impact.  At other  times it 
is 
designed  to move  freely  with the 
occupant,  regardless  of occupant 
movement. 
• For best  restraint  the slight ten
sion  on the  shoulder  caused by 
the  shoulder  belt retractor 
is de
sirable.
