Seat Belts
This section describes how to
use seat belts properly, and
some things not to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride
where a seat belt cannot be
worn properly. In a crash,
if you or your passenger(s)
are not wearing seat belts,
injuries can be much worse
than if you are wearing seat
belts. You can be seriously
injured or killed by hitting
things inside the vehicle
harder or by being ejected
from the vehicle. In addition,(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
anyone who is not buckled
up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.
It is extremely dangerous to
ride in a cargo area, inside or
outside of a vehicle. In a
collision, passengers riding
in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed. Do not allow
passengers to ride in any
area of the vehicle that is
not equipped with seats and
seat belts.
Always wear a seat belt, and
check that all passenger(s)
are restrained properly too.
This vehicle has indicators as
a reminder to buckle the seat
belts. See Seat Belt
Reminders 0132.

.Sit up straight and always
keep your feet on the floor in
front of you (if possible).
.Wear the lap part of the belt
low and snug on the hips,
just touching the thighs. In a
crash, this applies force to
the strong pelvic bones and
you would be less likely to
slide under the lap belt.
If you slid under it, the belt
would apply force on your
abdomen. This could cause
serious or even fatal injuries.
.Wear the shoulder belt over
the shoulder and across the
chest. These parts of thebody are best able to take
belt restraining forces. The
shoulder belt locks if there is
a sudden stop or crash.
{Warning
You can be seriously injured,
or even killed, by not
wearing your seat belt
properly.
Never allow the lap or
shoulder belt to become loose
or twisted.

Never wear the shoulder belt
under both arms or behind
your back.
Always use the correct buckle
for your seating position.
Never route the lap or
shoulder belt over an armrest.
{Warning
The seat belt can be pinched
if it is routed under plastic
trim on the seat, such as
trim around the rear
seatback folding handle or
side airbag. In a crash,
pinched seat belts might not
provide adequate(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
protection. Never allow seat
belts to be routed under
plastic trim pieces.
{Warning
You can be seriously injured
or killed if the shoulder belt
is worn behind your back,
under your legs, or wrapped
around your neck. The
shoulder belt can tighten but
cannot be loosened if it is
locked. The shoulder belt
locks when it is pulled all the
way out of the retractor.
It unlocks when the shoulder
belt is allowed to go all the
way back into the retractor,
but it cannot do this if it is
wrapped around you. You
may have to cut the seat
belt if it is locked and
tightened around you.

Lap-Shoulder Belt
All seating positions in the
vehicle have a
lap-shoulder belt.
The following instructions
explain how to wear a
lap-shoulder belt properly.1. Adjust the seat, if the seat is adjustable, so you can sit
up straight. To see how,
see “Seats” in the Index.
2. Pick up the latch plate and
pull the belt across you. Do
not let it get twisted. The lap-shoulder belt may
lock if you pull the belt
across you very quickly.
If this happens, let the belt
go back slightly to unlock
it. Then pull the belt across
you more slowly.
If the shoulder portion of a
passenger belt is pulled
out all the way, the child
restraint locking feature
may be engaged. See Child
Restraint Systems
089.
If this occurs, let the belt
go back all the way and
start again. If the locking
feature stays engaged
after letting the belt go
back to stowed position on
the seat, move the seat
rearward or recline the
seat until the shoulder belt
retractor lock releases.
Engaging the child
restraint locking feature in
the front outboard seating
position may affect the
passenger sensing system.
See Passenger Sensing
System 078.
If the webbing locks in the
latch plate before it
reaches the buckle, tilt the
latch plate flat to unlock.

3. Push the latch plate intothe buckle until it clicks.
Pull up on the latch plate
to make sure it is secure.
If the belt is not long
enough, see Seat Belt
Extender 070.
Position the release button
on the buckle so that the
seat belt could be quickly
unbuckled if necessary.
4. If equipped with a shoulder belt height adjuster, move
it to the height that is right
for you. See “Shoulder Belt
Height Adjuster” later in
this section for
instructions on use and
important safety
information.
5. To make the lap part tight, pull up on the
shoulder belt.
To unlatch the belt, push the
button on the buckle. The belt
should return to its stowed
position.
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.
Shoulder Belt Height
Adjuster
The vehicle has a shoulder
belt height adjuster for the
driver and front outboard
passenger seating positions.
