Seat Belt Extender

If a seat belt is not long enough to fit properly, even when

the webbing is fully extended and the adjustable upper

shoulder belt anchorage (if equipped) is in its lowest

position, an authorized dealer can provide you with a Seat

Belt Extender. The Seat Belt Extender should be used only

if the existing seat belt is not long enough. When the Seat

Belt Extender is not required for a different occupant, it

must be removed.

WARNING!

ONLY use a Seat Belt Extender if it is physically
required in order to properly fit the original seat belt
system. DO NOT USE the Seat Belt Extender if,
when worn, the distance between the front edge of
the Seat Belt Extender buckle and the center of the
occupant’s body is LESS than 6 inches.

Using a Seat Belt Extender when not needed can
increase the risk of serious injury or death in a
collision. Only use the Seat Belt Extender when the
lap belt is not long enough and only use in the
recommended seating positions. Remove and store
the Seat Belt Extender when not needed.

Seat Belts And Pregnant Women

Seat belts must be worn by all occupants including preg-

nant women: the risk of injury in the event of an accident

is reduced for the mother and the unborn child if they are

wearing a seat belt.
Position the lap belt snug and low below the abdomen and

across the strong bones of the hips. Place the shoulder belt

across the chest and away from the neck. Never place the

shoulder belt behind the back or under the arm.
