that is needed to permit the seatbelt to be buckled properly, re-
move the heavy clothing and do not use the extender.

Do not use the extender if the buckle of the extender rests
over the abdomen.
D
Do not let someone else use the extender. Use of an extender
when it is not needed could reduce the effectiveness of the seat-
belt and result in more serious injury in the event of a collision.
D
Use the extender only for the front seatbelts and only for the
model for which it was originally provided. Never use the extend-
er for the rear seatbelts or for a different model.
NOTE
When the seatbelt extender is used by a pregnant passenger, con-
sult a doctor to get approval in advance.

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-release button on the
extender, not on the seatbelt. This helps to prevent damage to the ve-
hicle interior and extender itself.
For the safety of others, the extender should be removed after each use,
especially if the next person using the seatbelt does not need one.
