To Release the Seat Belt
The seat belt is released by pressing
the release button in the locking buckle.
When it is released, the belt should
automatically draw back into the re-
tractor.
If this does not happen, check the belt
to be sure it is not twisted, then try
again.
the belt is properly locked and that the
belt is not twisted.
You should place the belt as low as
possible on your hips, not on your
waist. If the belt is located too high on
your body, you could slide under it in
case of accident or a sudden stop.
This could result of death, serious in-
jury or property damage. Both arms
should not be under or over the belt.
Rather, one should be over and the
other under, as shown in the illustra-
tion.
Never wear the seat belt under the arm
nearest the door.

SEAT BELTS
To Fasten Your Belt
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab into
the buckle. There will be an audible
"click" when the tab locks into the
buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to
the proper length only after the lap belt
is adjusted manually so that it fits
snugly around your hips. If you lean
forward in a slow, easy motion, the belt
will extend and let you move around. If
there is a sudden stop or impact, how-
ever, the belt will lock into position. It
will also lock if you try to lean forward
too quickly. Check to make sure that
