Where to Insert the Rear Seat Belts in the Outlander?
2 Answers
In the Outlander's rear seats, the seat belts on both sides are actually the same as those in the front seats. Pull out the seat belt, the shoulder strap should cross the chest, and the lap belt should fit snugly over the hip bones, then insert it into the buckle. The buckle is located in the gap between the seat cushion and the backrest. Below is some related information about seat belts: 1. Product Classification: Fall arrest type, semi-full body type, bungee equipment type, automotive type. 2. Function: The purpose of automotive seat belts is to restrain the occupant firmly in the seat during a collision or when emergency braking is applied. The pre-tensioner will instantly tighten the belt, preventing secondary collisions. Once the tension exceeds a certain limit, the force limiter will slightly loosen the belt to maintain stable chest pressure. Therefore, automotive seat belts serve to restrict movement and absorb impact energy, mitigating inertia forces to avoid or reduce the severity of injuries to occupants. Automotive accident investigations show that wearing a seat belt can reduce fatalities by 57% in frontal collisions, 44% in side collisions, and 80% in rollovers.
Oh, seat belts in the back row are crucial when taking the family out in an Outlander. The buckles are usually on the side of the seats, near the hip area—just reach toward the outer side of your thigh after sitting down to find them. The middle seat has a foldable buckle under the cushion, which requires slightly lifting the cushion to reveal it. I recommend familiarizing yourself with their locations before setting off to ensure everyone can buckle up quickly. Make sure the belt clicks securely when fastened—it effectively prevents rollover in accidents. In hot weather or when the car is dirty, the buckles might stick, so wipe them regularly with a clean cloth to keep them smooth. On long trips, I always remind my family and friends to double-check—safety in small details should never be overlooked.
