Seatbelt Extender 57 |

|
WARNING
Be sure to observe the following when using the seatbelt extender.
Failure to follow these instructions and warnings could reduce the effectiveness of the seatbelt and result in more serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
. Never use the seatbelt extender with a child restraint system, as it may not securely hold the restraint system in place during an accident, significantly increasing the risk of death or serious injury.
. Never use the extender when the belt itself is long enough to permit it to be buckled properly. If removal of heavy clothing is all that is needed to permit the seatbelt to be buckled properly, remove the heavy clothing and do not use the extender.
. Never leave the seatbelt extender’ s tongue plate engaged with the seatbelt buckle when not in use. Doing so may prevent the airbag system from functioning properly.
. Never connect the seatbelt extender to the passenger seatbelt
|
buckle when the passenger seat is empty; doing so may prevents the airbag system from functioning properly.
. Do not use the extender if the buckle of the extender rests over the abdomen.
. 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 result in more serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
. Use the extender only for the front seatbelts and only for the model for which it was originally provided. Never use the extender for the rear seatbelts or for a different model.
. Before you fasten a seatbelt extender, make sure that the seatbelt extender is not twisted. A twisted seatbelt extender can increase the risk of a severe injury in an accident.
. Do not use more than one seatbelt extender at a time. Doing so could decrease the effectiveness of the seatbelt and increase the risk of injury or death in an
|
accident.
. Do not use a seatbelt extender that has been used in an accident or damaged.
|
WARNING
. Make sure that the front passenger’ s frontal airbag ON indicator light is on when you use a seatbelt extender in the front passenger’ s seat. The front passenger’ s frontal airbag OFF indicator must also be off. If it is on, the front passenger’ s SRS airbag will not deploy in a collision, which could result in death or serious injury.
