Safety features of your vehicle Seat belts
The seat belt automatically adjusts to
the proper length only 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 let you move around. If
there is a sudden stop or impact, how
-
ever, the belt will lock into position. It will
also lock if you try to lean forward too
quickly.
If you are not able to pull out the seat
belt from the retractor, firmly pull the
belt out and release it. Then you will be
able to pull the belt out smoothly.
You should place the lap belt portion as
low as possible and snugly across your
hips, not on your waist. If the lap belt is
located too high on your waist, it may
increase the chance of injury in the
event of a collision. Both arms should
not be under or over the belt. Rather,
one should be over and the other under,
as shown in the illustration.
Never wear the seat belt under the arm
near the door.
Releasing the seat belt
Press the release button (1) in the lock
-
ing buckle.
When it is released, the belt should auto
-
matically draw back into the retractor.
If this does not happen, check the belt to
be sure it is not twisted, then try again.
