Seats and Restraints 2-17
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. If this
happens, let the belt go back all the
way and start again.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckle
until it clicks.
Pull up on the latch plate to make
sure it is secure.
Position the release button on the
buckle so that the safety 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.
All seating positions in the vehicle have
a lap-shoulder belt except for the
second row center position which may
have a lap belt. See Lap Belt on page
2-20 for more information.
The following instructions explain how
to wear a lap-shoulder belt properly.
1. Adjust the seat, if the seat is
