Srs Driver And Front Passenger Airbags - Toyota Tacoma 1998 Operating Manual

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
"
After inserting the tab, make sure
the tab and buckle are locked and
that the seat belt extender is not
twisted.
"
Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in
the buckle as this may prevent you
from properly latching the tab and
buckle.
"
If the seat belt does not function
normally, immediately contact your
Toyota dealer. Do not use the seat
until the seat belt is fixed. It cannot
protect an adult occupant or your
child from injury.
'98 Tacoma (U)
SRS driver and
front passenger airbags
The SRS (Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem) airbags are designed to provide
further protection for the driver and
front passenger when added to the pri-
mary protection provided by the seat
belts.
In response to a severe frontal impact,
the SRS airbags work together with the
seat belts to help prevent or reduce injury
by inflating, in order to decrease the likeli-
hood of the driver's or front passenger's
head or chest directly hitting the steering
wheel or dashboard. When the passenger
airbag switch is in the "ON" position, the
passenger airbag is activated even with
no passenger in the front seat.
Be sure to wear your seat belt.
