### Seat Belt Warning

Caution: To help avoid personal injury from unrepaired crash damage to a restraint system, perform the seat belt check for each seat belt system. Replace the seat belt system if there is any doubt about the condition of system components.

The seat belt reminder system is a system alerting with sound and light when the seat belt is unbelted.

The severity of warning level depends on the vehicle status and is signalized for driver with a seat belt warning lamp and sound.

The seat belt reminder after this will follow the below process according to vehicle status.

### Pretensioner Front Seat Belt Buckle

The pretensioner front seat belt buckle contains a mechanically controlled pyrotechnical piston which reduces the seat belt slack when it is activated in a head-on or angled front collision. The pretensioner front seat belt buckle must be replaced after an accident that causes its activation.

### Three-Point Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) Seat Belt

The 3-point emergency locking retractor (ELR) seat belt is always unlocked, allowing the passenger freedom of movement, except in emergencies, such as rapid deceleration, rapid acceleration, or hard cornering maneuvers.

### Two-Point Lap Rear Center Seat Belt

The 2-point lap rear center seat belt is a single continuous length of webbing. The webbing is routed from the anchor through a latch plate and into a single retractor.

### Operational and Functional Checks

• | Keep sharp objects and potentially damaging objects away from the seat belts.

• | Avoid bending or damaging any portion of the buckle or the latch plate.

• | Do not bleach or dye the belt webbing. Use only mild soap and water in order to clean the belts.

• | When installing the seat belt anchor bolts and the screws, start the bolts and the screws by hand in order to prevent crossthreading.

• | Do not attempt any repairs on the retractor mechanisms or the covers. Replace any defective assemblies with new assemblies.

• | Replace any belts that are cut or damaged in any way.

1. Inspect all seat belt anchor bolts and the screws in order to verify that they are secure.
2. Inspect the seat belt buckle. The buckle must lock and unlock easily.
3. After inserting the latch into the buckle, tug sharply on the belt. The buckle must remain locked.
4. Fully extend the shoulder belt portion to make sure that there is no twisting or tears in the belt.
5. Let the shoulder belt retract fully. The belt should retract easily.

### Child Seat Tether Anchor
