WARNING! Any device used to induce slack into the shoulder belt portion of the three-point belt
system will have a detrimental effect on the amount of protection available to you in the event of a
collision. The seat back should not be tilted too far back. The shoulder belt must be taut in order to
function properly.
Spool-out
To make child seat installation easier, each seat belt buckle (except for the driver's belt) is equipped with
a locking mechanism to help keep the lap section of the seat belt taut. Please refer to page 1:11 for more
information on this function.
pg. 1:3 Seat belts, Center head restraint
During pregnancy
Pregnant women should always wear seat belts. Remember that the belt should always be positioned in
such a way as to avoid any possible pressure on the abdomen. The lap portion of the belt should be
located low, as shown in the above illustration.
