SECTION 8A

SEAT BELTS

Caution : Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition must also be in B unless otherwise noted.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

DRIVER SEAT BELT WARNING

The driver's safety belt incorporates a safety belt reminder light in the instrument cluster to remind the driver if the safety belt is not fastened when the ignition is turned ON.

THREE-POINT PRETENSIONER FRONT SEAT BELT (W/EUROPE ONLY)

The pretensioner front seat belt is optional. It contains a electrically-controlled pyrotechnical retractor, which reduces seat belt slack when it is activated in a head-on or angled front collision. The pretensioner front seat belt must be replaced after an accident that causes its activation.

THREE-POINT WLR FRONT SEAT BELT

The three-point web locking retractor (WLR) seat belt will limit the movement of the driver and offer better protection in an accident.

THREE-POINT ELR FRONT SEAT BELT

The three-point emergency locking retractor (ELR) front seat belt is always unlocked, allowing the passenger freedom of movement, except in emergencies (rapid deceleration, rapid acceleration, or hard cornering maneuvers).

THREE-POINT ELR REAR OUTBOARD AND CENTER SEAT BELT

The rear outboard and center seating positions use the three-point emergency locking retractor (ELR) seat belts. The three-point emergency locking retractor (ELR) seat belt is always unlocked, allowing the passenger freedom of movement, except in emergencies (rapid deceleration, rapid acceleration, or hard cornering maneuvers).

TWO-POINT LAP REAR CENTER SEAT BELT

The two-point lap rear center seat belt is a single continuous length of webbing. The webbing is routed from the anchor through a latch plate and into a single retractor.

OPERATIONAL AND FUNCTIONAL CHECKS

Caution :
  1. Inspect all seat belt anchor bolts and the screws in order to verify that they are secure.
  2. Inspect the seat belt buckle. The buckle must lock and unlock easily.
  3. After inserting the latch into the buckle, tug sharply on the belt. The buckle must remain locked.
  4. Fully extend the shoulder belt portion to make sure that there is no twisting or tears in the belt.
  5. Let the shoulder belt retract fully. The belt should retract easily.
