Seating and safety restraints Each seating position in your vehicle has a specific safety belt assembly which is made up of one buckle and one tongue that are designed to be used as a pair. 1. Use the shoulder belt on the outside shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder belt under the arm. 2. Never swing the safety belt around your neck over the inside shoulder. 3. Never use a single belt for more than one person. Vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode The vehicle sensitive mode is the normal retractor mode which locks the belts in response to vehicle movement. For example, if the driver brakes suddenly, turns a corner sharply or your vehicle receives an impact of 8 km/h (5 mph) or more, the combination safety belts will lock to help reduce the forward movement of the driver and passengers. 105
