6. To make the lap part tight, pull upon the shoulder belt.
It may be necessary to pull the
webbing firmly, through the
adjustable stop, or move the
adjustable stop along the webbing
toward the outboard floor anchor,
to fully tighten the lap belt across
the lap.
To unlatch the belt, push the button
on the buckle. The belt should return
to its stowed position. Slide the adjustable stop along the
webbing toward the guide loop when
the seat belt is not in use to prevent
the latch plate from rattling against
the interior trim.
Always stow the seat belt slowly. If the
seat belt webbing returns quickly to
the stowed position, the retractor may
lock and cannot be pulled out. If this
happens, pull the seat belt straight out
firmly to unlock the webbing, and
then release it. If the webbing is still
locked in the retractor, see your
dealer.
Before a door is closed, be sure the
seat belt is out of the way. If a door is
slammed against a seat belt, damage
can occur to both the seat belt and
the vehicle.

adjuster for the driver and front
outboard passenger seating positions.

portion of the belt is on the shoulder
and not falling off of it. The belt
should be close to, but not contacting,
the neck. Improper shoulder beltheight adjustment could reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt in a
crash. See
How to Wear Seat Belts
Properly 047.
Press the release button and move the
height adjuster to the desired position.
The adjuster can be moved up by
pushing the slide/trim up. After the
adjuster is set to the desired position,
try to move it down without pressing
the release button to make sure it has
locked into position.
