3. Pull the webbing and insert the tongue
plate (1) into the open end of the buck-
le (2) until an audible “click” is heard,
indicating the latch is locked. Make
sure the belt is not twisted.
There will be an audible “click” when the
tab locks in the buckle. The seat belt
automatically adjusts to the proper length
only after the lap belt is adjusted manu-
ally so that it fits snugly around your hips.
If you lean forward in a slow, easy
motion, the belt will extend and let you
move around. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the belt will lock into position. It
will also lock if you try to lean forward too
quickly.
When using the rear centre seat belt, the
buckle with the “CENTER” mark must be
used.

WARNING
Never let anyone ride in the rear
centre seat without fastening all
metal tab (or tongue plate) and
anchor connector (or buckle) as
described in this section. This seat
belt is designed to function as a
typical 3-point restraint (lap/shoul-
der belt). Using only the shoulder
portion or lap portion of the belt
can result in serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or
sudden stop.
