the proper length only after the lap
belt portion is adjusted manually so
that it fits snugly around your hips. If
you lean forward in a slow, easy

den stop or impact, however, the belt
will lock into position. It will also lock
if you try to lean forward too quickly.

belt from the retractor, firmly pull the
belt out and release it. Then you will
be able to pull the belt out smoothly.Height adjustment
