How to Disengage the Automatic Locking Mode

Unbuckle the combination lap and shoulder belt and allow it to retract
completely to disengage the automatic locking mode and activate the
vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.

Safety Belt Extension Assembly

WARNING: Do not use extensions to change the fit of the
shoulder belt across the torso.

If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, you can obtain a
safety belt extension assembly from an authorized dealer.

Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier as the safety
belt. Manufacturer identification is located at the end of the webbing on
the label. Also, use the safety belt extension only if the safety belt is too
short for you when fully extended.

SAFETY BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

WARNING: Position the safety belt height adjusters so that the
belt rests across the middle of your shoulder. Failure to adjust

the safety belt properly could reduce the effectiveness of the safety belt
and increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Adjust the height of the shoulder belt so the belt rests across the middle
of your shoulder.

To adjust the shoulder belt height:

1. Squeeze the buttons and slide the height
adjuster up or down.

2. Release the buttons and pull down on the
height adjuster to make sure it is locked in
place.
