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 you securely fasten the tongue to the buckle by pulling on the
tongue.
While you are fastened in the seatbelt, the

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
seatbelt locks and helps reduce your
forward movement.
SENSITIVE LOCKING MODE
WHAT IS SENSITIVE LOCKING
MODE
Sensitive locking mode is a seatbelt
retractor feature that allows shoulder belt
length adjustment according to your
movements and locking in response to
vehicle movement.
HOW DOES SENSITIVE LOCKING
MODE WORK
If the driver suddenly brakes, turns a corner
sharply, or the vehicle receives an impact
of about 5 mph (8 km/h) or more, the
seatbelts lock to help reduce forward
movement of the driver and passengers.
In addition, the seatbelt retractor locks if
you pull the seatbelt webbing out too
quickly. If the retractor locks, slowly lower
the height adjuster to allow the seatbelt
to retract.
If the retractor does not unlock, pull the
seatbelt out slowly then feed a small
length of webbing back toward the stowed
position. For rear seatbelts, recline the rear seat
backrest or push the seat backrest cushion
away from the seatbelt. Feed a small
length of webbing back toward the stowed
position.
AUTOMATIC LOCKING MODE
WHAT IS AUTOMATIC LOCKING
MODE
This feature keeps the seatbelts
pre-locked. The belt still retracts to remove
any slack in the shoulder belt.
WHEN TO USE AUTOMATIC
LOCKING MODE
Use this mode any time you install a child
restraint in a front seating position in a
Regular Cab, Super Cab, Crew Cab or any
rear seating position of a Super Cab or
Crew Cab. The optional front seat center
seatbelt in the Super Cab and Crew Cab
has a cinch mechanism. Properly restrain
children 12 years old and under in a rear
seat whenever possible. See
Child Safety
(page 35).
Note: Automatic locking mode is not
available on the driver seatbelt.
