Adjusting Your Seat Belt
You should place the belt as low as possible on your hips, not on your waist. If
located too high on your body, the chances of sliding out from under it and
suffering serious injury or death are increased. Both arms should not be under
or over the belt. Rather, one should be over and the other under, as shown in
the illustration.
To Release the Seat Belt
The seat belt is released by pressing the release button in the locking buckle.
When it is released, the belt should automatically draw back into the retractor.
If this does not happen, check the belt to be sure it is not twisted, then try it a鄄
gain.
SEAT BELTS (3-Point Type)
To Fasten Your Belt
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into
the buckle. There will be an audible "click,, when the tab locks into the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper length only after the lap belt
is adjusted manually so that it fits snugly around your hips. If you lean forward
in a slow, easy motion, the belt will extend and let you move around. If there is
a sudden stop or impact, however, the belt will lock into position. It will also
lock if you try to lean forward too quickly.
Check to make sure the belt is properly locked and that the belt is not twisted.
NOTE:
If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when the ignition key Is in the "ON" posi鄄
tion, the seat belt warning light will flash.
