Pregnant women should always

wear their safety belt. The lap belt

portion of a combination lap and

shoulder belt should be positioned

low across the hips below the belly

and worn as tight as comfort will

allow. The shoulder belt should be

positioned to cross the middle of

the shoulder and the center of the

chest.

Safety belt locking modes

All safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder

belts. The driver safety belt has the first locking mode and the front

outboard passenger and rear seat safety belts have both types of locking

modes described as follows:

Vehicle sensitive mode

This is the normal retractor mode, which allows free shoulder or lap belt

length adjustment to your movements and locking in response to vehicle

movement. For example, if the driver brakes suddenly or turns a corner

sharply, or the vehicle receives an impact of approximately 5 mph

(8 km/h) or more, the combination safety belts will lock to help reduce

forward movement of the driver and passengers.

In addition, the retractor(s) is designed to lock if the webbing is pulled

out too quickly. If this occurs, let the belt retract slightly and pull

webbing out again in a slow and controlled manner.

Automatic locking mode

In this mode, the shoulder belt or lap belt is automatically pre-locked.

The belt will still retract to remove any slack in the shoulder or lap belt.

The automatic locking mode is not available on the driver safety belt.

When to use the automatic locking mode

This mode should be used any time a child safety seat, except a

booster, is installed in passenger front or rear seating positions. Children

12 years old and under should be properly restrained in a rear seating

position whenever possible. Refer to Safety restraints for children or

Safety seats for children later in this chapter.
