    • Before latching the buckle, distinguish the rear side seat buckle from the center seat buckle.
    • If foreign matter (viscous drinks, toothpicks, sand, plastic, vinyl, metal parts, etc.) becomes lodged in the buckle's internal button, it may interfere with latching and cause a malfunction.
    • After latching the buckle and tongue, check the latching force with a push-pull gauge (latching force: 3 kgf or less).
