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.)
