Grasp the shoulder portion and
pull downward until the entire
belt is pulled out.

Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking
sound. This indicates the seat belt is now in the automatic locking
mode.

How to disengage the automatic locking mode

Disconnect the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to retract
completely to disengage the automatic locking mode and activate the
vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.

If the seat belt is not coming out of the retractor when it looks to be
fully retracted, check to see if it might still be attached to the side of the
vehicle by the snaps designed to keep it out of the way when you last
put the rear seat into cargo configuration. Refer to

Returning the rear

seats to upright position

in this chapter.

WARNING:

After any vehicle collision, the seat belt systems at

all seating positions (except the driver position, which doesn’t

have this feature) must be checked by an authorized dealer to verify
that the automatic locking retractor feature for child seats is still
functioning properly. In addition, all seat belts should be checked for
proper function.

WARNING:

BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE

REPLACED if the seat belt assembly “automatic locking

retractor” feature or any other seat belt function is not operating
properly when checked according to the procedures in Workshop
Manual. Failure to replace the Belt and Retractor assembly could
increase the risk of injury in collisions.
