To deactivate the locking
mechanism, unlatch the buckle and
let the seat belt fully retract. To
refasten the seat belt, pull it out only
as far as needed.

For added protection, the front seat
belts are equipped with automatic
seat belt tensioners. When activated,
the tensioners immediately tighten
the belts to help hold the driver and
a front passenger in place.

The tensioners are designed to
activate primarily in frontal collisions,
and they should activate in any
collision severe enough to cause
front-airbag inflation.

When the tensioners are activated,
the seat belts will remain tight until
they are unbuckled in the normal
manner.

The tensioners can also be activated
during a collision in which the front
airbags do not deploy. In this case,
the airbags would not be needed, but
the additional restraint could be
helpful.
