This section is only for the lap belt.

To learn how to wear a lap-shoulder belt, see Lap-Shoulder Belt on page 3‑15.

Your vehicle may have a center seating position. When you sit in the center front seating position, you have a lap safety belt, which has no retractor.

To make the belt longer, tilt the latch plate and pull it along the belt.

Buckle, position, and release it the same way as the lap part of a lap-shoulder belt.

To make the belt shorter, pull its free end as shown until the belt is snug.

If the belt is not long enough, see Safety Belt Extender on page 3‑21.

Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if necessary.
