Do not leave a seat belt extender

connected to the buckle:

Leaving a seat belt extender connected

to the buckle without using the seat

belt is dangerous. When the seat belt

extender is connected to the driver's

seat belt buckle (or front passenger's

seat belt buckle), the SRS driver's (or

front passenger's) air bag system will

determine that the driver (or front

passenger) is wearing the seat belt

even if the driver (or front passenger) is

not wearing it. This condition could

cause the driver's (or front

passenger's) air bag to not activate

correctly and result in death or serious

injury in the event of collision. Always

wear the seat belt with the seat belt

extender.

Do not use the seat belt extender

when installing a child-restraint

system on the front or rear passenger

seat:

Using a seat belt extender to fasten a

child-restraint system on any seat is

dangerous. Always follow the

child-restraint system manufacturer's

installation instructions and never use

a seat belt extender.

NOTE

When not in use, remove the seat belt

extender and store it in the vehicle. If

the seat belt extender is left

connected, the seat belt extender

might get damaged as it will not retract

with the rest of the seat belt and can

easily fall out of the door when not in

use and be damaged. In addition, the

seat belt warning light will not

illuminate and function properly.
