Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides
This vehicle may have rear shoulder
belt comfort guides. If not, they are
available through your dealer. The
guides may provide added safety
belt comfort for older children who
have outgrown booster seats and
for some adults. When installed and
properly adjusted, the comfort guide
positions the shoulder belt away
from the neck and head.Here is how to install a comfort
guide to the safety belt:
Outboard Positions
1. For the outboard positions, remove the guide from its
storage clip on the interior body.
For the third row center position,
locate the comfort guide which is
located in a storage pocket, at
the top of the seat, under the
headrest on the driver's side of
the vehicle. To access the comfort guide, you will first need
to move the headrest forward by
pulling on the handle behind the
seatback. The comfort guide will
now be accessible.
Third Row Center Position
Pull the comfort guide out
of its storage location and
then return the headrest to its
upright position.
