the buckle.

Energy management feature
• This vehicle has a safety belt system with an energy management

feature at the front outboard seating positions to help further reduce
the risk of injury in the event of a head-on collision.

• The energy management feature is designed to pay out webbing in a

controlled manner. This feature is designed to help reduce the belt
force acting on the occupant’s chest.

Lap belts

Adjusting the front center seat lap belt (if equipped)

The lap belt should fit snugly and as low as possible around the
hips, not across the waist.

The lap belt does not adjust
automatically. Insert the tongue into
the correct buckle (the buckle
closest to the direction the tongue is
coming from). To lengthen the belt,
turn the tongue at a right angle to
the belt and pull across your lap
until it reaches the buckle. To
tighten the belt, pull the loose end
of the belt through the tongue until
it fits snugly across the hips.
