NOTE
When fastening the rear seat shoul-
der belt or the center rear lap belt,
make sure the metal latch plate is
inserted into the correct buckle to
obtain maximum protection from the
seat belt.
SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER*
On some models, the seat belts for the front
seats are equipped with an automatic belt
pretensioner.
The restraint system with belt pretensioner
reduces the risk of injury in the event of
head on collision.
These seat belt pretensioners are always
activated in a severe head on collision so
that the driver and front passenger are
pressed firmly back into their seats.
The belt pretensioner is not triggered in the
event of a minor frontal, rear, side collision,
or rollover.
CAUTION
Damaged seat belt can cause more
serious injury.
• Inspect seat belts, pretensioners
and other constituent parts after
collision.
• Replace pretensioners and seat
belts if the pretensioners have
been activated.
