Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage

In the driver and front passenger seats, the shoulder belt

can beadjusted upward or downward toposition the belt

away from your neck. Push the lever above the webbing

upward to release the anchorage, and then move it up or

down to the position that serves you best.

As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will

prefer a lower position, and if you are taller than average,

you’ll prefer a higher position. When you release the

anchorage, try to move it up or down to make sure that

it is locked in position.

In the rear seat, move toward the center of the seat to

position the belt away from your neck.

Pretensioners

The seat belts for both front seating positions are

equipped withpretensioningdevices that are designed to

remove any slack from the seat belts in the event of a

collision. These devices improve the performance of the

seat belt systembyassuring that the beltistight about the

occupant early in a collision. Pretensioners work for all

size occupants, including those in child restraints.

NOTE:

These devices are not a substitute for proper

seat belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt still

must be worn snugly and positioned properly.

The pretensioners are triggered by the front airbag con-

trol module (see Airbag Section). Like the front airbags,

the pretensioners are single use items. After a collision

that is severe enough to deploy the airbags and preten-

sioners, both must be replaced.
