Rear Center Lap/Shoulder Belt Retractor Lockout
This feature is designed to lock the retractor whenever the
rear seatback is not fully latched. This prevents someone
from wearing the rear center lap/shoulder belt when the
rear seatback is not fully latched.
NOTE: If the rear center lap/shoulder belt cannot be
pulled out, check that the rear seatback is fully latched. If
the rear seatback is properly latched and the rear center
lap/shoulder belt still cannot be pulled out, the Automatic-
Locking Retractor (ALR) system may be activated. To reset
this feature you must let all of the seat belt webbing return
into the retractor. You will not be able to pull out more
webbing until all of the webbing has been returned back
into the retractor.
WARNING!
The rear center lap/shoulder belt is equipped with a
lock-out feature to ensure that the rear seatback is in
the fully upright and locked position when occupied.
If the rear seatback is not fully upright and locked and
the rear center lap/shoulder belt can be pulled out of
the retractor, immediately take the vehicle to your
authorized dealer for service. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious injury or death.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure
Use the following procedure to untwist a twisted lap/
shoulder belt.
1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to the anchor
point.
2. At about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) above the latch
plate, grasp and twist the seat belt webbing 180 degrees
to create a fold that begins immediately above the latch
plate.
3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing.
The folded webbing must enter the slot at the top of the
latch plate.
4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it clears the
folded webbing and the seat belt is no longer twisted.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage
In the driver and front passenger seats, the top of the
shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or downward to
position the seat belt away from your neck. Push or
squeeze the anchorage button to release the anchorage, and
move it up or down to the position that serves you best.
