Seat Belt Extender
If your seat belt is not long enough,
even when fully extended, a seat belt
extender may be available to you at no
charge from authorized dealer.
This extender will be only for you and
for the particular vehicle and seat. Even
if it plugs into other seat belts, it may
not hold in the critical moment of a
crash.
When ordering an extender, only order
one that provides the necessary
additional length to fasten the seat belt
properly. Please contact authorized
dealer for more information.
When not in use, remove the seat belt
extender and store it in the vehicle. If
the seat belt extender is left connected,
the seat belt extender might get
damaged as it will not retract with the
rest of the seat belt and can easily fall
out of the door when not in use and be
damaged.
In addition, the seat belt warning light
will not illuminate and function properly.
Warning!
Do not use a seat belt extender unless it
is necessary. Using a seat belt extender
when not necessary is dangerous. The
seat belt will be too long and not fit
properly. In an accident, the seat belt will
not provide adequate protection and you
could be seriously injured. Only use the
extender when it is required to fasten the
seat belt properly.
Do not use an improper extender. Using
a seat belt extender that is for another
person or a different vehicle or seat is
dangerous. The seat belt will not provide
adequate protection and the user could be
seriously injured in an accident. Only use
the extender provided for you and for the
particular vehicle and seat.
NEVER use the extender in a different
vehicle or seat. If you sell your vehicle, do
not leave your seat belt extender in the
vehicle. It could be used accidentally by the
new owner of the vehicle. After removing
the seat belt extender, discard it. Never use
the seat belt extender in any other vehicle
you may own in the future.
Do not use an extender that is too long.
Using an extender that is too long is
dangerous. The seat belt will not fit
properly. In an accident, the seat belt will
not provide adequate protection and you
could be seriously injured. Do not use the
extender or choose one shorter in length if
the distance between the extender's
buckle and the center of the user's body is
less than 6 inches (15 cm).
Do not leave a seat belt extender
connected to the buckle. Leaving a seat
belt extender connected to the buckle
without using the seat belt is dangerous.
When the seat belt extender is connected
to the driver's seat belt buckle (or
passenger) seat, the SRS driver's (or
passenger's) air bag system will determine
that the driver (or passenger) is wearing the
seat belt even if the driver (or passenger) is
not wearing it. This condition could cause
the driver's (or passenger's) air bag to not
activate correctly and result in death or
serious injury in the event of collision.
Always wear the seat belt with the seat belt
extender.
Do not use the seat belt extender when
installing a child restraint system on the
passenger seat. Using a seat belt extender
to fasten a child restraint system on any
seat is dangerous. Always follow the child
restraint system manufacturer's installation
instructions and never use a seat belt
extender.
