Safety features of your vehicle
When it is released, the belt should auto-
matically draw back into the retractor.
If this does not happen, check the belt to
be sure it is not twisted, then try again.
Adjusting the height of shoulder
belt
You can adjust the height of the shoul-
der belt anchor to one of 4 positions for
maximum comfort and safety.
OKA4030054
The height of the adjusting seat belt
should not be too close to your neck.
You will not be getting the most effective
protection. The shoulder portion should
be adjusted so that it lies across your
chest and midway over your shoulder
near the door and not your neck.
To adjust the height of the seat belt
anchor, lower or raise the height
adjuster into an appropriate position.
僅 To raise the height adjuster, pull it up
(1).
僅 To lower it, push it down (3) whilst
pressing the height adjuster button
(2).
Release the button to lock the anchor
into position. Try sliding the height
adjuster to make sure that it has locked
into position.
Improperly positioned seat belts can
cause serious injuries in an accident.
WARNING
僅 Verify the shoulder belt anchor is
locked into position at the appropriate
height. Never position the shoulder
belt across your neck or face.
僅 After a collision, the seat belt system
should be inspected to ensure it is
operating normally. Replace any belts
that are not functioning appropriately.
CAUTION
Do NOT fold down the left portion of the
rear seatback when the rear centre seat
belt is buckled. ALWAYS UNBUCKLE the
rear centre seat belt before folding down
the left portion of the rear seatback. If
the rear centre seat belt is buckled when
the left portion of the rear seatback is
folded down, distortion and damage to
the top portion of the seatback and seat
belt garnish may result, causing the
seatback to lock into the folded down
position.
