Seat Belt: Description and Operation

The active restraints on the front and rear seats are three-point seat belt systems. Manual fastening of the continuous seat belt employs both the lap and shoulder restraint. Seat belts should always be worn by the driver and passenger(s). Each seating position has:

- Belt Buckle
- Slip Tongue
- Continuous Seat Belt
- Locking Retractor Mechanism
- Belt Guide
- Anchor Hardware

The belt system allows freedom of movement, locking only on hard braking, hard cornering, or impacts of approximately 8 km/h (5 mph) or more.
