REAR INFLATABLE SAFETY BELT (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING: Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the rear
inflatable safety belt.
Note: The rear inflatable safety belts are compatible with most infant
and child safety car seats and belt positioning booster seats when
properly installed. This is because they are designed to fill with a cooled
gas at a lower pressure and at a slower rate than traditional airbags.
After inflation, the shoulder portion of the safety belt remains cool to the
touch.
The rear inflatable safety belts are located in the shoulder portion of the
safety belts of the second-row outboard seating positions.
The rear inflatable safety belt consists of the following:
• an inflatable bag located in the shoulder safety belt webbing.
• lap safety belt webbing with automatic locking mode.
• Safety belt warning light and chime. See Safety Belt
Warning Lights and Indicators in this chapter.
• Crash Sensors and Airbag Indicator. See Crash Sensors and
Airbag Indicator in the Supplemental Restraint System
chapter.
How Does the Rear Inflatable Safety Belt System Work?
WARNING: If the rear inflatable safety belt has deployed, it will
not function again. The rear inflatable safety belt system must be
replaced by an authorized dealer.
• The rear inflatable safety belts will function like standard restraints in
everyday usage.
