Rear Inflatable Seatbelt (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Do not attempt to service, repair, ormodify rear inflatable seatbelts.
If the rear inflatable seatbelt hasdeployed, it will not function again andmust be replaced immediately. If the seatbeltis not replaced, the unrepaired area willincrease the risk of injury in a crash.
The rear inflatable seatbelts are in theshoulder portion of the seatbelts of thesecond-row outboard seating positions.
Note:The rear inflatable seatbelts arecompatible with most infant and child safetycar seats and belt positioning booster seatswhen properly installed. This is because theyare designed to fill with a cooled gas at alower pressure and at a slower rate thantraditional airbags. After inflation, theshoulder portion of the seatbelt remains coolto the touch.
The rear inflatable seatbelt consists of thefollowing:
•An inflatable bag in the shoulder seatbeltwebbing.
•Lap seatbelt webbing with automaticlocking mode.
•The same warning light, electroniccontrol and diagnostic unit as used forthe front seatbelts.
•Impact sensors in various parts of thevehicle.
How does the rear inflatable seatbeltsystem work?
The rear inflatable seatbelts function likestandard restraints in everyday usage.
During a crash of sufficient force, theinflatable belt inflates from inside thewebbing.

SEATBELT REMINDER
Belt-Minder™
This feature supplements the safety beltwarning function by providing additionalreminders that intermittently sound a toneand illuminate the safety belt warning lightwhen you are in the driver seat or you havea front seat passenger and a safety belt isunbuckled.
The system uses information from the frontpassenger sensing system to determine if afront seat passenger is present and thereforepotentially in need of a warning. To avoidactivating the Belt-Minder feature for objectsyou place in the front passenger seat, onlythe front seat passengers receive warningsas determined by the front passengersensing system.
If the Belt-Minder warnings expire (warningsfor about five minutes) for one passenger(driver or front passenger), the otherpassenger can still cause the Belt-Minderfeature to turn on.
