Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

Center Lap

The center seat belts do not have retractors. To lengthen the belt, tip the tongue at a right angle to the belt, and pull the tongue until the ends can be joined over the lap.

To fasten the belt, insert the tongue into the open end of the buckle until a snap is heard. To shorten the belt, pull on the loose end of the webbing. The belt should be snug across the hips, NEVER ACROSS THE WAIST.
