Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure

Use the following procedure to untwist a
twisted lap/shoulder belt.

1. Position the latch plate as close as pos-

sible to the anchor point.

2. At about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm)

above the latch plate, grasp and twist the
seat belt webbing 180 degrees to create a
fold that begins immediately above the
latch plate.

3. Slide the latch plate upward over the

folded webbing. The folded webbing must
enter the slot at the top of the latch plate.

4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it

clears the folded webbing and the seat
belt is no longer twisted.

Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage

In the driver and front passenger seats, the
top of the shoulder belt can be adjusted
upward or downward to position the seat belt
away from your neck. Push or squeeze the
anchorage button to release the anchorage,
and move it up or down to the position that
serves you best.

As a guide, if you are shorter than average,
you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in
a lower position, and if you are taller than
average, you will prefer the shoulder belt
anchorage in a higher position. After you
release the anchorage button, try to move it
up or down to make sure that it is locked in
position.

NOTE:

The adjustable upper shoulder belt anchor-
age is equipped with an Easy Up feature. This
feature allows the shoulder belt anchorage to
be adjusted in the upward position without
pushing or squeezing the release button. To
verify the shoulder belt anchorage is latched,
pull downward on the shoulder belt anchor-
age until it is locked into position.

WARNING!

• Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could

make your injuries in a collision much
worse. You might suffer internal injuries,
or you could even slide out of the seat
belt. Follow these instructions to wear
your seat belt safely and to keep your
passengers safe, too.

• Position the shoulder belt across the

shoulder and chest with minimal, if any
slack so that it is comfortable and not
resting on your neck. The retractor will
withdraw any slack in the shoulder belt.

• Misadjustment of the seat belt could

reduce the effectiveness of the safety
belt in a crash.
