When the seat belt is fully extended from
the retractor to allow the installation of a
child restraint system, the seat belt oper-
ation changes to allow the belt to retract,
but not to extend (Automatic Locking
Retractor Type). Refer to “Using a child
restraint system” in this section.
CAUTION
Seat belts - Front passenger and rear
seat 3-point system with combination
locking retractor
Do NOT fold down the left portion of
the rear seat back when the rear
center seat belt is buckled. ALWAYS
UNBUCKLE the rear center seat
belt before folding down the left
portion of the rear seat back. If the
rear center seat belt is buckled
when the left portion of the rear
seat back is folded down, distortion
and damage to the top portion of
the seat back and seat belt garnish
may result, causing the seat back to
lock into the folded down position.
To fasten your seat belt:
Combination retractor type seat belts are
installed in the rear seat positions to help
accommodate the installation of child
restraint systems. Although a combina- ✽ NOTICE
tion retractor is also installed in the front
passenger seat position, it is strongly
recommended that children always be
seated in the rear seat. NEVER place
any infant restraint system in the front
seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the fea-
tures of both an emergency locking
retractor seat belt and an automatic lock-
ing retractor seat 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. When not securing a
child restraint, the seat belt operates in
the same way as the driver's seat belt
(Emergency Locking Retractor Type). It
automatically adjusts to the proper length
only after the lap belt portion of the seat
belt is adjusted manually so that it fits
snugly around your hips.
Although the combination retractor
provides the same level of protection for
seated passengers in either emergency
or automatic locking modes, have the
seated passengers use the emergency
locking feature for improved conven-
ience. The automatic locking function is
intended to facilitate child restraint
installation. To convert from the auto-
matic locking feature to the emergency
locking operation mode, allow the
unbuckled seat belt to fully retract.
