Safety features of your vehicle Seat belts
When using the rear center seat
belt, the buckle with the "CENTER"
mark must be used.
Stowing the rear seat belt
The rear seat belt buckles can be
stowed in the pocket between the
rear seatback and cushion when not
in use.
1. Route the seat belt webbing
through the rear seat belt guides.
It will help keep the belts from
being trapped behind or under the
seats.
2. After inserting the seat belt,
tighten the belt webbing by pull
-
ing it up.
When pulling out to wear the seat
belt, the tongue should be slowly
pulled out of the seat belt guide so
that the seat belt guide does not
come off the trim.
Pre-tensioner seat belt
Your vehicle is equipped with pre-
tensioner seat belts at the front
outboard seating positions.
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is
to make sure that the seat belts fit
tightly against the occupant's body
in certain collisions.
The pre-tensioner seat belts may
be activated in a collision when the
collision is severe enough.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or
if the occupant tries to lean forward
too quickly, the seat belt retractor
will lock into position. In certain
frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner
will activate and pull the seat belt
