Lap-Shoulder Belt All rear seating positions have lap-shoulder belts. Here is how to wear a lap-shoulder belt properly. Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if you ever had to. 1. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you. Do not let it get twisted. 2. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure. When the shoulder belt is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it does, let it go back all the way and start again. If the belt is not long enough, see Safety Belt Extender on page 1-28. 1-24 3. To make the lap part tight, pull down on the buckle end of the belt as you pull up on the shoulder part.
