Stowing the rear seat belt
• The rear seat belt buckles can be

stowed in the pocket between the
rear seatback and cushion when not
in use.
• Routing the seat belt webbing through
the rear seat belt guides will help keep
the belts from being trapped behind
or under the seats.
After inserting the seat belt, tighten
the belt webbing by pulling it up.
CAUTION
When using the seat belt, use it after
taking it out of the guides.
If you pull the seat belt when it is stored
in the guides, it may damage the guides
and/or belt webbing.
