Warning
With head restraints that are not
installed and adjusted properly, there is a
greater chance that occupants will suffer
a neck/spinal injury in a crash. Do not
drive until the head restraints for all
occupants are installed and adjusted
properly.
Adjust the head restraint so that the top of
the restraint is at the same height as the
top of the occupant's head. This position
reduces the chance of a neck injury in a
crash.

5. To make the lap part tight, pull up onthe shoulder belt.
It may be necessary to pull stitching on
the seat belt through the latch plate to
fully tighten the lap belt on smaller
occupants.
This seat belt has a feature that will
reduce the tension of the seat belt on
the occupant's shoulder if the vehicle is
on. To set this feature, gently pull on
the belt, or lean forward and then sit
back. The shoulder belt will retract and
rest lightly against the occupant.
When the seat belt is unbuckled or when
the vehicle is turned off, the tension
reducer will deactivate.To unlatch the belt, push the button on the
buckle. The belt should return to its stowed
position.
Slide the latch plate up the seat belt
webbing when the seat belt is not in use.
The latch plate should rest on the stitching
on the seat belt, near the guide loop on the
side wall.
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.
Adjust the height so the shoulder 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 belt
height adjustment could reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt in a crash. See
How to Wear Seat Belts Properly
034.
