NOTE: When the combination lap/shoulder belt is unbuckled and allowed to retract completely, the retractor will switch to the vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode. See the detailed instructions under Safety Seats for Children in this chapter. Shoulder Belt Height Adjustment Driver and right front passenger The driver and right front passenger shoulder belt height is adjustable to one of five (5) positions. To adjust the belt down, push the release button on the adjuster down and slide the adjuster down. Then release the button and make sure the adjuster is firmly in one of the five (5) positions. To adjust the belt up, slide the adjuster up. (You do not have to push the release button.) Slide it up or down until the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder. RWARNING Position the shoulder belt height adjuster so that the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder. Be sure the shoulder belt is properly positioned on your shoulder each time you use the belt. If the shoulder belt is off your shoulder, on your upper arm or neck, there is a greater risk of severe injury in a collision. NOTE: Be sure the belt is properly positioned on your shoulder each time you use the belt. 14
