CAUTION
When using the seat belt extender,
observe the following. Failure to fol-
low these instructions could result in
less effectiveness of the seat belt re-
straint system in case of vehicle acci-
dent, increasing the chance of per-
sonal injury.
D
Never use the seat belt extender if
you can fasten the seat belt without
it.
D
Remember that the extender pro-
vided for you may not be safe when
used on a different vehicle, or for
another person or at a different
seating position than the one origi-
nally intended for.
To connect the extender to the seat
belt, insert the tab into the seat belt
buckle so that the "PRESS" signs on
the buckle−release buttons of the ex-
tender and the seat belt are both facing
outward as shown.
You will hear a click when the tab locks
into the buckle.
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 extend-
er itself.
When not in use, remove the extender
and store in the vehicle for future use.
CAUTION
D
After inserting the tab, make sure
the tab and buckle are locked and
that the seat belt extender is not
twisted.
D
Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in
the buckle as this may prevent you
from properly latching the tab and
buckle.
D
If the seat belt does not function
normally, immediately contact your
EV service station. Do not use the
seat until the seat belt is fixed. It
cannot protect an adult occupant or
your child from injury.
