1-1 Seat Belt 17
■ When the vehicle travels smoothly, the seat belt will be pulled out or
retracted as the passenger moves slowly and stably to allow the passenger
to move freely.
■ If the seat belt gets locked up due to excessively fast retraction, pull the
seat belt forcibly and then loosen it to smoothly retract the seat belt.
Pretensioning and force limitation functions of seat belt*
If the vehicle suffers a severe frontal collision and the condition to trigger the
pretensioner is met, the pretensioner retracts part of the seat belt rapidly and
locks it up to enhance the protection for passengers. The force limiter limits the
restraining force applied by the seat belt to passengers to a certain range,
avoiding injury to passengers due to excessive restraining force.
Use of Seat Belt
1. Adjust the seat to a proper position and adjust the backrest to a proper tilt.
(Refer to electric adjustment of front seats*)
2. Adjust the position of a three-point
seat belt.
■ Keep the correct posture, pull out the
seat belt strap smoothly across the
chest diagonally from the shoulder.
Be sure not to pull the strap across
underneath of the arm or back of the
neck.
■ Be sure to keep the lap belt in a
position as low to the hip as possible.
Do not buckle it in the waist position.
3. Insert the seat belt tongue to the
buckle until you hear the "click"; pull
the tongue in the opposite direction
to confirm it has been locked
successfully. Take care not to twist
