REAR CENTER SEAT BELT
FOLD–DOWN SEAT)
The rear center seat belt is a 3–point type
restraint with 2 buckles. Both seat belt
buckles must be correctly located and se-
curely latched for proper operation.
Make sure the buckle 1 (with light gray
buckle–release button) is securely latched
for ready use of the center seat belt.
The buckle 1 should be separated only
when the rear left seatback is folded
down, if the luggage loaded in the en-
larged trunk will damage the webbing of
the rear center seat belt. (See "Fold–down
rear seat" in this section for the instruc-
tion of how to correctly connect the seat
belt.)
(WITH Two buckles and tabs for rear center
seat belt
The two buckles for the rear center seat
belt are distinguished with colors of the
buckle release button. Also the two tabs
have different shape for its end so that
the belt is not buckled in the wrong place.
Buckle 1—Properly matches with light
gray tab
Buckle 2—Properly matches with interi-
or color tab
