Keep Belts Clean and DrySeat belts should be kept clean and dry. If belts
become dirty, they can be cleaned by using a
mild soap solution and warm water. Bleach,

B170A04A-AATHEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FRONT SEAT
SHOULDER BELT (If Installed)
You can adjust the height of the shoulder belt
anchor to one of the 4 positions for maximum
comfort and safty.
If the height of the adjusting seat belt is too near
your neck, you will not be getting the most
effective protection. The shoulder portion
should be adjusted so that it lies across your
chest and midway over your shoulder nearest
the door and not your neck.
To adjust the height of the seat belt anchor,
lower or raise the height adjuster into an appro-
priate position. To raise the height adjuster, pull
it up. To lower it, push it down while pressing the
height adjuster button.
Release the button to lock the anchor into
position. Try sliding the height adjuster to make
sure that it has locked into the position.

To Fasten Your Belt
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle.
There will be an audible "click" when the tab
locks into the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt portion is adjusted
manually so that it fits snugly around your hips.
If you lean forward in a slow, easy motion, the
belt will extend and let you move around. If
there is a sudden stop or impact, the belt will
lock into position. It will also lock if you try to
lean forward too quickly. Check to make sure
that the belt is properly locked and that the belt
is not twisted.
