2005 HONDA S2000 lock

With the child seat in position,
route the belt through the child
seat according to the seat maker’s
instructions, then insert the latch
plate into the buckle.
To activate the lockable retractor,
slowly pull the shoulder part of the
belt all the way out until it stops,
then let the belt f eed back into the
retractor.
In this vehicle, a child seat must be
secured to the vehicle with the lap
part of the lap/shoulder belt. In
addition, the passenger’s lap/
shoulder belt has a locking
mechanism that must be activated to
secure a child seat.
Move the vehicle seat to the rear-
most position. Moving the seat as
f ar back as possible reduces the
chance of a child being injured or
killed if the passenger’s airbag
inflates. After the belt has retracted, tug on
it. If the belt is locked, you will not
be able to pull it out. If you can pull
the belt out, it is not locked and
you will need to repeat these steps.

blink. All turn signals on the outside

The odometer shows the total
distance your vehicle has been
driven in miles and kilometers. It is
illegal under U.S. f ederal law and
Canadian provincial regulations to
disconnect, reset, or alter the
odometer with the intent to change
the number of miles and kilometers
indicated. This trip meter shows the number of
miles or kilometers driven since you
last reset it.To reset a trip meter, display it, and
then press and hold the TRIP button
until you hear a beep and the
number resets to ‘‘0.0’’.
The select button switches the
speedometer reading between miles
per hour and kilometers per hour. It
also changes the odometer and trip
meters to read in miles or kilometers
correspondingly. To change the
readings, push the SELECT button,
and hold it until you hear a beep.
There are two trip meters: Trip A
and Trip B. Switch between these
displays by pressing the TRIP button
repeatedly. Each trip meter works
independently, so you can keep track
of two dif f erent distances.
