Front seat belt height
adjustment
Your vehicle has seat belt height
adjustments for the driver and front
passenger. Adjust the height of the
shoulder belt so the belt rests across the
middle of your shoulder.
WARNING
Never wear a seat belt across the
neck. This could result in serious
neck injury in the event of a collision.
To lower the shoulder belt height, push
the button and slide the height adjuster
down. To raise the height of the shoulder
belt, slide the height adjuster up. Pull
down on the height adjuster to make
sure it is locked in place.
USING SEAT BELTS DURING
PREGNANCY
WARNING
Never wear just the lap strap of
a lap/shoulder diagonal seat belt
and never sit on the lap strap using just
the shoulder strap. Both of these
actions are extremely dangerous and
may increase your risk of serious injury.
The Australian National Health and
Medical Research Council recommends
that all pregnant women travelling in a
motor vehicle wear the lap-sash seat
belt with the buckle over the hip and the
lap section of the belt as tight as comfort
will allow, and as low as possible, below
the abdomen.
EMERGENCY LOCKING
MODE
In the emergency locking mode, the
seat belt remains comfortable on the
occupant and the retractor will lock in
position during a collision.
When the seat belt is fastened, it will
always be in the emergency locking
mode. For rear seats, the seatbelt
systems can be switched to automatic
locking mode by pulling the webbing
all the way out to its full length for child
restraints installation.
