Lap-Shoulder Belt

All seating positions in the vehicle have a lap-shoulder
belt except for the center front passenger position, if
your vehicle has one, which has a lap belt. See Lap Belt
on page 1-28 for more information.

The following instructions explain how to wear a
lap-shoulder belt properly.

1. Adjust the seat, if the seat is adjustable, so you can

sit up straight. To see how, see “Seats” in the Index.

2. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.

Do not let it get twisted.

The lap-shoulder belt may lock if you pull the belt
across you very quickly. If this happens, let the belt
go back slightly to unlock it. Then pull the belt
across you more slowly.

If the shoulder portion of a passenger belt is pulled
out all the way, the child restraint locking feature
may be engaged. If this happens, let the belt
go back all the way and start again.

3. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.

If you find that the latch plate will not go fully into
the buckle, check if the correct buckle is being used.

Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is
secure. If the belt is not long enough, see Safety
Belt Extender
on page 1-29.

Position the release button on the buckle so that
the safety belt could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.
