KEY POINTS: PASSIVE RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Beginning with the 1989 M.Y., XJ6 3.6 vehicles incorporate a passive restraint seat belt system.

The passive belt is a single diagonal seat belt fed from an inertia reel assembly, mounted on the inside seat slide and connecting to a motorized runner.

^ A quick release emergency buckle attaches at the runner.
