To deactivate the locking
mechanism, unlatch the buckle, and
let the seat belt fully retract. To
refasten the 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
airbag inflation.

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

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