FRONT SEAT BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
Warning
• Handling the front seat belt (pre-tensioner seat belt) improperly can accidentally deploy the pre-
tensioner seat belt, which may seriously injure you. Read the air bag system service warnings and
cautions before handling the front seat belt. (See 08-10-3 AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE WARNINGS.)
(See 08-10-5 AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE CAUTIONS.)
