Komfort–Lok® Latch
Your Peterbilt contains a feature designed to eliminate cinch-
ing and provide improved safety and comfort. Cinching is the
condition where a belt becomes continually tighter around
you during a rough, bouncy ride. The need for this feature
increases with rough road conditions, particularly over long
distances. To eliminate cinching, simply activate the Kom-
fort–Lok®
feature at the appropriate time:
1. Fasten the seatbelt according to the directions in the pre-
vious “Safety Belt Restraint” section.
2. You are now ready to activate the Komfort–Lok. Lean for-
ward to pull a little slack in the belt (maximum of one
inch, measured from the belt to your chest). Be sure to
allow only a small amount of slack.
3. When the slack is right, flip the latch cover up, cinching it
into place.
4. To release the Komfort–Lok latch, reach up and pull the
latch cover open (down), or simply pull down on the
shoulder belt.
5. When you want to get out of the cab, release the latch,
then just push the button on the buckle.
