We recommend that all safety belt
assemblies in use in vehicles involved in a
crash be replaced. However, if the crash was
minor and an authorized dealer finds that the
belts do not show damage and continue to
operate properly, they do not need to be
replaced. Safety belt assemblies not in use
during a crash should also be inspected and
replaced if either damage or improper
operation is noted.
Properly care for safety belts. See Cleaning
the Interior (page 326).
SEATBELT EXTENSION
WARNINGS
Persons who fit into the vehicle's
seatbelt should not use an extension.
Unnecessary use could result in serious
personal injury in the event of a crash.
WARNINGS
Only use extensions provided free of
charge by Lincoln Motor Company
dealers. The dealer will provide an extension
designed specifically for this vehicle, model
year and seating position. The use of an
extension intended for another vehicle,
model year or seating position may not offer
you the full protection of your vehicle’s
seatbelt restraint system.
Never use seatbelt extensions to install
child restraints.
Do not use a seatbelt extension with
an inflatable seatbelt.
Do not use extensions to change the
fit of the belt across the torso, over the
lap or to make the seatbelt buckle easier to
reach.
If, because of body size or driving position,
it is not possible to properly fasten the
seatbelt over your lap and shoulder, an
extension that is compatible with the
seatbelts is available free of charge from
Lincoln Motor Company dealers. Only Lincoln
seatbelt extensions made by the same
company which made the original equipment
seatbelts, should be used with Lincoln
seatbelts. Ask your authorized dealer if your
extension is compatible with your Lincoln
vehicle restraint system.
