extender. yDo not use the extender if the buckle of the
extender rests over the abdomen. y Do not let someone else use the extender.
Use of an extender when it is not needed could
reduce the effectiveness of the seatbelt and re-
sult in more serious injury in the event of a col-
lision.y Use the extender only for the front seatbelts
and only for the model for which it was original-
ly provided. Never use the extender for the rear
seatbelts or for a different model.
NOTE
When the seatbelt extender is used by a pregnant
passenger, consult a doctor to get approval in ad-
vance. To connect the extender to the seatbelt, insert the
tongue plate into the seatbelt buckle so that the
“PRESS” signs on the buckle-release buttons of the
extender and the seatbelt are both facing outward as
shown in the diagram. You will hear a click when the
tongue plate locks into the buckle.
When releasing the seatbelt, press on the buckle-re-
lease button on the extender, not on the seatbelt. This
helps to prevent damage to the vehicle interior and ex-
tender itself.
For the safety of others, the extender should be re-
moved after each use, especially if the next person us-
ing the seatbelt does not need one.
