It may be necessary to pull the
stitching on the safety belt
through the latch plate to fully
tighten the lap belt on smaller

Before a door is closed, be sure the
safety belt is out of the way. If a
door is slammed against a safety
belt, damage can occur to both the
safety belt and the vehicle.Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
The vehicle has a shoulder belt
height adjuster for the driver and
right front passenger seating
positions.
Adjust the height so that the shoulder
portion of the belt is centered on the
shoulder. The belt should be away
from the face and neck, but not
falling off of the shoulder. Improper
shoulder belt height adjustment
could reduce the effectiveness of the
safety belt in a crash.
To move it down, push down on the
button (A) and move the height
adjuster to the desired position.
