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

If you need to lengthen the belt, unfasten it and repeat the procedure
above.

To unfasten the belt, push in the release button prior to opening the rear
door.

Safety belt extension assembly

If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, there is a 20 cm
(8 inch) safety belt extension assembly that can be added (part number
611C22). This assembly can be obtained from your dealer at no cost.

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.

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

Safety belt warning light and indicator chime

The seat belt warning light illuminates in the instrument cluster and a
chime sounds to remind the occupants to fasten their safety belts.
