Three Point Seat Belt; Using The Belt - SSANGYONG MUSSO Owner's Manual

1–26 BEFORE DRIVING YOUR CAR
WARNING
• When installing a child restraint
system, follow the instructions pro-
vided by the manufacturer.
• When not in use, keep your child
restraint system secured with a
seat belt or remove it from the ve-
hicle.
• Do not hold a child while riding in
a vehicle.
• Never let a child stand or kneel on
any seat.
• Do not allow a child in the cargo
areas while the vehicle is moving.
• Children who have outgrown child
restraint systems should sit in the
rear seat and be restrained with the
seat belt.
If child's seating position has a
shoulder belt which is on or very
close to the face or neck, move the
child close to the center of the ve-
hicle, slightly inboard of the shoul-
der belt, or move the child to a
position without a shoulder belt if
possible.

THREE POINT SEAT BELT

Each Ssangyong vehicle is equipped with
three point seat belts with automatic retrac-
tors, allowing freedom of body movement
when driving at even, constant speeds, al-
though the spring-tensional belts are always
fitted snugly.
The belt has a "vehicle sensitive retractor"
which is designed to lock during heavy ac-
celeration or deceleration.
Do not attempt to test the locking device by
intentionally "shooting" your upper torso in
the forward direction.
This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to
the movement of wearer, but in the event of
a sudden or strong shock, the belt automati-
cally locks to restrain the wearer's body.

Using the Belt

Pull the belt evenly out of the retractor and
guide it across the body, making certain that
it is not twisted.
Insert the metal latch plate into the buckle.
NOTE
If the belt locks when being pulled
out, rewind it completely in the re-
tractor, then pull it out to the desired
length.
