NOTE
With the exception of the seat belt for the driver, the seat
belts in all other seating positions are equipped with an
Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) function. If you pull
the seat belt fully out of the retractor, the retractor will
switch to its ALR child restraint installation function (see
page 2-31).
When the ALR function has been activated, the seat belt
will only retract. If this happens, let the belt fully retract,
then pull the seat belt back out, repeating steps 1 through
4.
5. To release the belt, press the button on the buckle and
allow the belt to retract.
If the belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check
for kinks or twists in the webbing. Then make sure it
remains untwisted as it retracts.
Driver’s seat belt reminder/warning light
N00418400384
A tone and warning light are used to remind the driver to fasten
the seat belt.
If the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the
operation mode is put in ON without the driver’s seat belt
being fastened, a warning light will come on and a tone will
sound for approximately 6 seconds to remind you to fasten
your seat belt.
If the vehicle is driven with the seat belt still unfastened, the
warning light will blink and the tone will sound intermittently
until the seat belt is fastened.
WA R N I N G
!
Be sure the lap belt portion fits snugly and is worn
as low as possible across the hips, not around the
waist. Failure to follow this instruction will increase
the risk of serious injury or death in the event of an
accident.
Be sure the seat belt webbing is not twisted when
worn. Twisted webbing may adversely affect seat
belt performance.

not allow anyone to ride in your vehicle unless he or
she is also seated and fastening a seat belt. Children
should additionally be restrained in a secure child
restraint system.
WA R N I N G
