CAUTION
■
Using a seat belt comfort guide
Failure to observe the following precautions could reduce the effectiveness of the
seat belt in an accident, causing death or serious injury.
●
Make sure the belt is not twisted and that it lies flat. The elastic cord must be
behind the belt and the guide must be on the front.
●
To reduce the chance of injury in case of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or acci-
dent while driving, remove and store the comfort guide in its pocket when it is not
in use.
●
Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the center of the shoul-
der. The belt should be kept away from the neck, and should not fall off the shoul-
der.
■
Using a seat belt extender
●
Do not wear the seat belt extender if you can fasten the seat belt without the
extender.
●
Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restraint system because
the belt will not securely hold the child restraint system, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
●
The personalized extender may not be safe on another vehicle, when used by
another person, or at a different seating position other than the one originally
intended.
NOTICE
■
When using a seat belt extender
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 the extender itself.
