Subaru Outback (BR): Unfastening the rear center seatbelt

Push the release button of the center seatbelt buckle (on the left-hand side)
to unfasten the seatbelt.


1. Insert a key or other hard pointed object into the slot in the connector (buckle)
on the right-hand side and push it in, and the connector (tongue) plate will disconnect
from the buckle.

2. Allow the retractor to roll up the belt. You should hold the webbing end and
guide it back into the retractor while it is rolling up. Neatly store the tongue
plate in the recess and then insert the connector (tongue) plate into the slot.

CAUTION
● Do not allow the retractor to roll up the seatbelt too quickly. Otherwise,
the metal tongue plates may hit against the trim, resulting in damaged trim.
● Have the seatbelt fully rolled up so that the tongue plates are neatly stored.
A hanging tongue plate can swing and hit against the trim during driving, causing
damage to the trim.
