Seat Belt Restraint System
 WARNING
Improperly positioned seat belts may 
increase the risk of serious injury 
in an accident. Take the following 
precautions when adjusting the seat 
belt:
ś Position the lap portion of the seat 
belt as low as possible across your 
hips, not on your waist, so that it fits 
snugly.
ś Position one arm under the shoulder 
belt and the other over the belt, as 
shown in the illustration.
ś Always position the shoulder belt 
anchor into the locked position at the 
appropriate height.
ś NEVER position the shoulder belt 
across your neck or face.
Seat Belt-Driver’s 3-point system 
with emergency locking retractor
OHI038140
To fasten your seat belt:
Pull it out of the retractor and insert the 
metal tab (1) into the buckle (2). There 
will be an audible “click” when the tab 
locks into the buckle.
OHI038137
You should place the lap belt (1) portion 
across your hips and the shoulder belt (2) 
portion across your chest.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the 
proper length after the lap belt portion 
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 move with you.
If there is a sudden stop or impact, the 
belt will lock into position. It will also lock 
if you try to lean forward too quickly.
