SAFETY 195
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage
In the driver and outboard front passenger seats, the top of
the shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or downward to
position the seat belt away from your neck. Push or squeeze
the anchorage button to release the anchorage, and move it
up or down to the position that serves you best.Adjustable Anchorage

As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will prefer the
shoulder belt anchorage in a lower position, and if you are taller
than average, you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a
higher position. After you release the anchorage button, try to
move it up or down to make sure that it is locked in position.
NOTE:
The adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage is equipped
with an Easy Up feature. This feature allows the shoulder
belt anchorage to be adjusted in the upward position without
pushing or squeezing the release button. To verify the
shoulder belt anchorage is latched, pull downward on the
shoulder belt anchorage until it is locked into position.
WARNING!
• Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make your injuries in a collision much worse. You might suffer
internal injuries, or you could even slide out of the seat
belt. Follow these instructions to wear your seat belt
safely and to keep your passengers safe, too.
• Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so that it is comfortable and
not resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw
any slack in the shoulder belt.
• Misadjustment of the seat belt could reduce the effec -
tiveness of the safety belt in a crash.
• Always make all seat belt height adjustments when the vehicle is stationary.
