Safety belt pretensioner

Your vehicle is equipped with safety belt pretensioners at the driver and
front outboard passenger seating positions.

The safety belt pretensioner tightens the safety belts firmly against the
occupant’s body at the start of the crash.

WARNING: The driver and front passenger safety belt system
(including retractors, buckles and height adjusters) must be

replaced if the vehicle is involved in a collision that results in
deployment of front airbags, side airbags, and safety belt pretensioners.

Safety belt extension assembly

If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, a safety belt extension
assembly can be obtained 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.

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

Front safety belt height adjustment

The front seat and outboard positions are equipped with a height
adjuster. Adjust the height of the shoulder belt so the belt rests across
the middle of your shoulder.

To adjust the shoulder belt height
downward, push the button (1) and
slide the height adjuster (2)
upwards slightly and then down.
Release the button (1) and pull
down on the height adjuster (2) to
make sure it is locked in place.

To adjust the belt upward, slide the adjuster up. You do not need to push
the button to slide the adjuster upwards. Pull down on the height
adjuster to make sure it is locked in place.
