two buckles and two tongues. There are two
body attaching points (one upper and one
lower) that attach each end of the seat belt
webbing.One of the seat belt tongues has two ``win-
dows'' (or holes) and the other has only one
``window''. The seat belt tongue with one
window attaches to the buckle mounted to
the side of the seat. The seat belt tongue
with two windows should be positionedproperly and fastened to the buckle
mounted in the location in the middle of the
seat.

seat belt clip. The seat belt clip should not
be used with a child seat or during seat belt
usage. The seat belt clip opening should
face the front of the vehicle.
