Rear Center Lap Belt; Enhanced Driver Seat Belt Use Reminder System (Beltalert) - Jeep 2004 Grand Cherokee Owner's Manual

Rear Center Lap Belt

The rear center seating position has a lap belt only. To
fasten the lap belt, slide the latch plate into the buckle
until you hear a "click."
To lengthen the lap belt, tilt the latch plate and pull. To
remove slack, pull the loose end of the webbing. Wear the
belt snug against the hips. Sit back and erect in the seat,
then adjust the belt as tightly as is comfortable.
WARNING!
• A lap belt worn too loose or too high is dangerous.
• A belt worn too loose can allow you to slip down
and under the belt in a collision.
• A belt that is too high will apply crash forces to
the abdomen, not to the stronger hip bones. In
either case, the risk of internal injuries is greater.
Wear a lap belt low and snug.

seconds and the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8
