Safety Belt Extension Assembly - Ford Probe Owner's Manual

This mode must be used when installing a child
seat. To switch the retractor from the emergency
locking mode to the automatic locking mode,
perform the following steps:
1. Buckle the lap/shoulder combination belt.
2. Pull on the belt until all of the stored belt is
out of the retractor and a click is heard.
3. A clicking sound will continue to be heard
as the belt is allowed to retract. This
indicates that the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode.
NOTE: When the combination lap/shoulder
belt is unbuckled and allowed to
retract completely, the retractor will
switch to the vehicle sensitive
(emergency) locking mode. See the
detailed instructions under Safety Seats
for Children in this chapter.

Safety Belt Extension Assembly

A safety belt that is too short even when fully
extended can be lengthened. You can add about
eight inches (20 cm) to the belt length with a
safety belt extension assembly. Safety belt
extensions are available at no cost from your
dealer.
Use only extensions manufactured by the same
supplier as the safety belt. Manufacturer
identification is located at the end of the
webbing on the label. Also, use the safety belt
extension only if the safety belt is too short for
you when fully extended. Do not use extension
to change the fit of the shoulder belt across the
torso.
