When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt oper-
ation changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). Refer to “Using a child
restraint system” in this section.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
Although the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection for
seated passengers in either emergency
or automatic locking modes, it is recom-
mended that seated passengers use the
emergency locking feature for improved
convenience. The automatic locking
function is intended to facilitate child
restraint installation. To convert from
the automatic locking feature to the
emergency locking operation mode,
allow the unbuckled seat belt to fully
retract.
When using the rear center seat belt, the
buckle with the “CENTER” mark must be
used.
CAUTION
Do NOT fold down the left portion of
the second row seat back when the
second row center seat belt is buck-
led. ALWAYS UNBUCKLE the sec-
ond row center seat belt before
folding down the left portion of the
second row seat back. If the second
row center seat belt is buckled
when the left portion of the second
row seat back is folded down, dis-
tortion and damage to the top por-
tion of the seat back and seat belt
garnish may result, causing the
seat back to lock into the folded
down position.
