Front and Rear Manual Lap Belts (U.S. Models)











Pull the belt out of the retractor with a steady motion and insert the tongue into the buckle until a snap is heard and latch engagement is felt.

NOTE: If the driver's lap belt is not connected, the safety belt warning lamp will illuminate and the warning chime will sound for four to eight seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position.

WARNING
- ENSURE THE LAP BELT IS FITTED SNUGLY AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE AROUND THE HIPS, NOT AROUND THE WAIST. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY INCREASE THE CHANCE OF INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION.
- FRONT AND REAR SEAT OCCUPANTS (INCLUDING PREGNANT WOMEN) SHOULD WEAR THE LAP BELTS IN ADDITION TO THE SHOULDER BELTS FOR OPTIMUM PROTECTION. REAR SEAT OCCUPANTS (INCLUDING PREGNANT WOMEN) SHOULD ALSO WEAR THE LAP BELTS FOR OPTIMUM PROTECTION.
