REAR CENTER SEAT BELT (coupe only)
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 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.)

Two buckles and tabs for rear center
seat belt
The two buckles for the rear center seat
belt are distinguished with size 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.
CAUTION
Make sure the both buckles are cor-
rectly located and securely latched.
Failure to properly match the buckle
and tab may cause severe injury in
case of an accident or a collision.
