longer. The cinch tongue is designed to slip during a crash, so always

wear the shoulder belt properly and don’t allow any slack in either the

lap or shoulder portions.

Before you can reach and latch a combination lap and shoulder belt

having a cinch tongue into the buckle, you may have to lengthen the lap

belt portion of it.

1. To lengthen the lap belt, pull

some webbing out of the shoulder

belt retractor.

2. While holding the webbing below

the tongue, grasp the tip (metal

portion) of the tongue so that it is

parallel to the webbing and slide the

tongue upward.

3. Provide enough lap belt length so that the tongue can reach the

buckle.

How to fasten the cinch tongue (Regular Cab center seating

positions and SuperCab/Crew Cab rear center seating positions)

1. Pull the combination lap and shoulder belt from the retractor so that

the shoulder belt portion of the safety belt crosses your shoulder and

chest.

2. Be sure the belt is not twisted. If the belt is twisted, remove the twist.

3. Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle for your seating position

until you hear a snap and feel it latch.

4. Make sure the tongue is securely fastened to the buckle by pulling on

the tongue.

The lap belt should fit snugly and as low as possible around the

hips, not across the waist.

While you are fastened in the safety belt, the combination lap/shoulder

belt with a cinch tongue adjusts to your movement. However, if you

brake hard, turn hard, or if your vehicle receives an impact of 5 mph

(8 km/h) or more, the safety belt will become locked and help reduce

your forward movement.
