OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
11 9
Be sure to wear the seat belt without the seat belt
extender if you can fasten the seat belt without the
extender.
 Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a
child restraint system on the front or rear passenger
seat. If installing a child restraint system with the seat
belt extender connected to the seat belt, the seat belt
will not securely hold the child restraint system,
which could cause death or serious injury to the child
or other passengers in the event of collision.
SV16050
To connect the extender to the seat belt, insert the tab into
the seat belt buckle so that the ªPRESSº signs on the
buckle release buttons of the extender 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 ext ender, not on the seat belt. This helps prevent
damage to the vehicle interior and extender itself.
When not in use, remove the extender and store in the vehicle
for future use.
