WARNING
Never place the shoulder belt under the arm
or behind the back. If an accident occurs, this
can increase the risk or severity of injury.
CAUTION
Metallic parts of the seatbelt can become very
hot in a vehicle that has been closed up in
sunny weather; they could burn an occupant.
Do not touch such hot parts until they cool.
B Front seatbelts
1. Adjust the seat position:
Driver’s seat: Adjust the seatback to the upright
position. Move the seatback as far from the steering
wheel as practical while still maintaining full vehicle
control.
Front passenger’s seat: Adjust the seatback to the
upright position. Move the seat as far back as pos-
sible.
2. Sit well back in the seat.
3. Pick up the tongue plate and pull the belt out
slowly. Do not let it get twisted. If the belt stops be-
fore reaching the buckle, return the belt slightly and
pull it out more slowly. If the belt still cannot be
unlocked, let the belt retract slightly after giving it a
strong pull, then pull it out slowly again.
