Unfastening the Seatbelts

1. Press the red button on the buckle to release the seatbelt.

1. Hold the seatbelt tongue and let it retract completely and smoothly to its stowed position.

The retractor for the third row center seatbelt is in the roof.

To fasten the seatbelt:

1. Pull the belt out steadily. It may lock if you pull it sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.

1. Insert the smaller tongue into the smaller buckle to the left of the center seat.

1. Pull the larger tongue across the lap and insert it into the buckle to the right of the center seat.

Note:   If in constant use, you can leave the belt buckled in the smaller buckle. When it is not in use, or when you fold or move the rear seats, you should release the belt from the smaller buckle. Using the tongue of the adjacent seatbelt, press the red button on the smaller buckle.
