What is the method to adjust the seat belt height in a Jimny?

To adjust the seat belt height in a Jimny: 1. Locate the seat belt anchor point at the upper exit of the seat belt near the front driver's seat backrest. 2. Press or pull outward the locking button on it. 3. Slide the seat belt up or down to adjust it to a suitable height. Taking the 2015 Jimny as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions of 3695mm in length, 1600mm in width, and 1705mm in height. The 2015 Jimny is equipped with a 1.3L naturally aspirated turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 85PS, a maximum torque of 110Nm, and a maximum power output of 62.5kW.
Adjusting the seatbelt height on a Jimny is actually quite simple. As an experienced driver with over a decade behind the wheel, I can share my method. First, locate the B-pillar next to the seat—that's the vertical pillar by the door with a plastic cover. You'll find a small button there, usually gray or black. Press it while gently sliding the seatbelt anchor point up or down with your other hand. Adjust until the belt rests comfortably across the middle of your shoulder—not too high to choke your neck nor too low. This ensures comfort during long drives and proper chest protection in case of accidents. I always remind novice drivers to check this adjustment whenever switching drivers, especially when family members have different heights. Given the Jimny's compact cabin, improper adjustment may cause the belt to dig into your neck, creating an uncomfortable pulling sensation. After adjusting, release the button to confirm the latch engages (listen for the click), but avoid yanking forcefully to prevent damage.
