Acura 2005 NSX - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 18)

Both seat belts have an emergency
locking retractor. In normal driving,
the retractor lets you move freely in
your seat while it keeps some
tension on the belt.
During a collision or sudden stop,
the retractor automatically locks the
belt to help restrain your body.
The passenger’s seat belt has an
additional locking mechanism that
must be activated to secure a
forward-facing child seat (see page
).
If the shoulder part of the belt is
pulled all the way out, the locking
mechanism will activate. The belt
will retract, but it will not allow the
passenger to move freely.
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.
The lap and shoulder belt goes over
your shoulder, across your chest,
and across your hips.
To fasten the belt, insert the latch
plate into the buckle, then tug on the
belt to make sure the buckle is
latched (see page
for how to
properly position the belt).
To unlock the belt, push the red
PRESS button on the buckle. Guide
the belt across your body so that it
retracts completely. After exiting the
vehicle be sure the belt is out of the
way and will not get closed in the
door.
Your seat belt system includes lap/
shoulder belts in both seating
positions. These belts are equipped
with automatic seat belt tensioners.
If you turn the ignition switch to ON
(II) before fastening your seat belt,
the beeper will sound and the
indicator will come on. If you do not
fasten your seat belt before the
beeper stops, the indicator will come
on and stay on until you fasten your
belt.
The seat belt system
includes an indicator on the
instrument panel and a beeper to
remind you to fasten your seat belt. 12
