against the shoulder belt, the comfort clip will
automatically release, and will need to be reset.
If equipped with a Sliding Komfort Latch,
unbuckle the seat belt, then tug on the shoulder
belt to release the Sliding Komfort Latch, or
press the Sliding Komfort latch to the "OFF"
position, then unbuckle the seat belt.
NOTE: Neither the comfort clip nor the Sliding
Komfort Latch need to be manually released in
an emergency situation. Each will release by
itself under rough road or other abnormal
conditions. Make sure the three-point seat belt
is completely retracted when it is not in use.
RollTek Rollover Protection
System
WARNING
Always use the seat belts when operating the
vehicle. Failure to do so can result in severe
personal injury or death. Do not place infants and
children in seats equipped with the RollTek
system. The RollTek system is designed for
adults only. Doing so could result in severe
bodily injury or death. Keep all heavy objects in
the cab secured. Do not place objects on the seat
back or block the side-roll air bag. Objects that
block the side-roll air bag may prevent proper
inflation and could result in serious injury or
death.
IMPORTANT: The RollTek system must be
replaced after being activated. Damaged seat
belts and tethers, or seat belts and tethers that
were worn in an accident, must be replaced,
and their anchoring points must be checked.
The RollTek system, when used with seat belts,
provides additional protection to the driver and
passenger (if equipped with a passenger-side
system) in rollover accidents. See
Fig. 5.34.
The RollTek system provides a significant increase in
seat stability during a rollover. Vehicles equipped with
RollTek rollover protection have a sensor mounted in
the seat base that activates the side-roll air bag and
seat pull-down device during a rollover. When the
RollTek module senses a rollover, the module
triggers gas cylinders mounted in the base of the
seat. The gas cylinders activate the power cinches
that then tighten the lap and shoulder belts against
the occupant of the seat and lower the seat
suspension, moving the occupant down and away
from the steering wheel and ceiling. The side-roll air
