plate into the buckle until a click
sound is heard.

release button .

retractor, firmly pull the belt and release it.
■ Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sud-
den stop or on impact. It may also lock if you
lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy
motion will allow the belt to extend so that
you can move around fully.
■ Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is com-
pletely extended and then retracted even
slightly, the belt is locked in that position and
cannot be extended. This feature is used to
hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly.
To free the belt again, fully retract the belt
and then pull the belt out once more.

If the power switch is turned off when
the driver’s seat belt is fastened, the
driver’s seat belt buckle will move out-
ward. The buckle will retract automati-
cally when the driver’s seat belt is
released.

■ Easy Access Buckle
● If the seat belt buckle is not latched when
it is in the outward position, it will return to
its original position after a certain amount
of time.
● If an occupant exits the vehicle and leaves
the front door open and then enters the
vehicle again, the seat belt buckle will not
operate until the door is closed and then
opened again.
■ Customization
Some functions can be customized.

■ When using a seat belt extender
When releasing the seat belt, press on
the buckle release button on the
extender, not on the seat belt.
This helps prevent damage to the vehicle
interior and the extender itself.
