Failure to follow the recommendations indicated below could result in reduced
effectiveness of the seat belt restraint system in case of vehicle collision, causing
personal injury.
The Seat Belt Extender must not be used:
a. By anyone other than for whom it was provided (name recorded on seat belt
extender).
b. In any vehicle and/or seat position other than the one for which it was provided.
c. When the Seat Belt Extender is provided for rear seat positions (with automatic
locking retractor), make sure the retractor is locked when in use.
If your seat belt cannot be fastened securely because it is not long enough, a
personalized Seat Belt Extender is available from your Toyota dealer free of charge.
Please contact your local Toyota dealer so that the dealer can order the proper required
length for the extender. Bring the heaviest coat you expect to wear for proper
measurement and selection of length. Additional ordering information is available at your
Toyota dealer.
CAUTION:
When using the Seat Belt Extender, observe the following. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in reduced effectiveness of the seat belt restraint system in
case of vehicle accident, increasing the chance of personal injury.
Never use the Seat Belt Extender if you can COMFORTABLY fasten the seat belt
without it.
The Seat Belt Extender must never be used with any child safety seats.
Remember that the extender provided for you may not be safe when used on a
different vehicle, or for another person or at a different seating position than the
one originally intended for.
To connect the extender to the seat
belt, insert the tab into the seat belt
buckle so that the ªPRESSº signs on
the buckle-release buttons of the
extender and the seat belt are both
facing outward as shown.
You will hear a click when the tab locks
into the buckle.
When releasing the seat belt, press on
the buckle-release button on the
extender, not
on the seat belt. This helps
prevent damage to the vehicle interior
and extender itself.
When not in use, remove the extender
and store in the vehicle for future use.
