Safety Belt Locking Modes
WARNINGS
After any vehicle crash, the safetybelt system at all passenger seatingpositions must be checked by anauthorized dealer to verify that theautomatic locking retractor feature forchild seats is still functioning properly. Inaddition, all safety belts should be checkedfor proper function.
The belt and retractor must bereplaced if the safety belt assemblyautomatic locking retractor featureor any other safety belt function is notoperating properly when checked by anauthorized dealer. Failure to replace thebelt and retractor assembly could increasethe risk of injury in crashes.
All safety restraints in the vehicle arecombination lap and shoulder belts. Thedriver safety belt has the first type oflocking mode. The front outboardpassenger and rear outboard seat safetybelts have both types of locking modesdescribed as follows:
Vehicle Sensitive Mode
This is the normal retractor mode, whichallows free shoulder belt lengthadjustment to your movements andlocking in response to vehicle movement.For example, if the driver brakes suddenlyor turns a corner sharply, or the vehiclereceives an impact of about 5 mph(8 km/h) or more, the combination safetybelts will lock to help reduce forwardmovement of the driver and passengers.
In addition, the retractor is designed to lockif the webbing is pulled out too quickly. Ifthis occurs, let the belt retract slightly andpull webbing out again in a slow andcontrolled manner.
Automatic Locking Mode
In this mode, the shoulder belt isautomatically pre-locked. The belt will stillretract to remove any slack in the shoulderbelt. The automatic locking mode is notavailable on the driver safety belt.
When to Use the Automatic LockingMode
Use this mode any time a child safety seat,except a booster, is installed in passengerfront or rear seating positions. You shouldproperly restrain children 12 years old andunder in a rear seating position wheneverpossible. See Child Safety (page 15).
How to Use the Automatic LockingMode
1. Buckle the combination lap andshoulder belt.
2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pulldownward until the entire belt is pulledout.
3. Allow the belt to retract. As the beltretracts, you will hear a clicking sound.This indicates the safety belt is now inthe automatic locking mode.

Transport Canada Deactivation Criteria(Canada Only)
WARNING
This vehicle has special energymanagement safety belts for thedriver and right front passenger.These particular belts are specificallydesigned to work with airbags to helpreduce the risk of injury in a crash. Theenergy management safety belt isdesigned to give or release additional beltwebbing in some accidents to reduceconcentration of force on an occupant'schest and reduce the risk of certain bonefractures and injuries to underlying organs.In a crash, if the airbag is turned off, thisenergy management safety belt mightpermit the person wearing the belt to moveforward enough to incur a serious or fatalinjury. The more severe the crash, and theheavier the occupant, the greater the riskis. Be sure the airbag is turned on for anyperson who does not qualify under theNational Highway Traffic SafetyAdministration deactivation criteria.

2.Child age 12 or under: A child age 12 orunder must ride in the front seat because:
•My vehicle has no rear seat;
•Although children age 12 and under ridein the rear seat whenever possible,children age 12 and under have nooption but to sometimes ride in thefront seat because rear seat space isinsufficient;
•The child has a medical condition that,according to the child's physician,makes it necessary for the child to ridein the front seat so that the driver canmonitor the child's condition.
3.Medical condition: A passenger has amedical condition that, according to his orher physician:
•Poses a special risk for the passengerif the airbag deploys; and
•Makes the potential harm from thepassenger airbag deployment greaterthan the potential harm from turningoff the airbag and experiencing a crashwithout the protection offered by theairbag
