Rear lap/shoulder belt
To fasten the rear lap/shoulder
belt:
1. Grasp the buckle and tongue
plate.
2. Slowly pull the lap/shoulder belt
out.
3. Insert the tongue plate (
1
) into the
open end of the buckle (
2
) until an
audible “click’’ is heard, indicating
the belt is locked in the buckle.
4. Position the lap portion (
1
) of the
belt across your lap as LOW ON
THE HIPS as possible to reduce
the risk of sliding under it during
an accident. Adjust the belt to a
SNUG FIT by pulling up on the
shoulder portion (
2
) of the seat
belt. The belt retractor is designed
to take up excess webbing auto-
matically and to maintain tension
on the belt. For your safety do not
put any excess slack into the seat
belt.

restrain more than one person
at a time.
Failure to follow these warnings
will increase the risk and sever-
ity of injury in an accident.
