Additional Information About Your Seat Belts

Seat Belt System Components

Your seat belt system includes lap/

shoulder belts in the front seats and
the outer back seats, and a lap belt in
the center back seat.

The seat belt system also

includes a light on the

instrument panel to remind you and
your passengers to fasten your belts.
If the driver's seat belt is not
fastened before the ignition is turned
ON (II), the light will come on and a
beeper will also sound. The beeper
will stop after a few seconds, but the
light will stay on until the driver's

seat belt is fastened.

Lap/Shoulder Belt

This seat belt has a single belt that

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.

To unlock the belt, push the red

PRESS button on the buckle.
Guide the belt across your body to

the door pillar. After exiting the car,
be sure the belt is out of the way and
will not get closed in the door.

All lap/shoulder 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.

All the lap/shoulder belts except the

driver's have an additional locking
mechanism that must be activated to
secure a child seat. (See pages

30

and

35

for instructions on how to

secure child seats with this type of
seat belt.)
