if
your shoulder belt
is
too
loose. In a crash, you would move
forward
too
much, which could increase injury.
The shoulder belt should fit against your body.
Safety Belt Extender
If the vehicle’s safety belt will fasten around you, you
should use it.
But
if
a safety belt isn’t long enough to fasten, your
dealer will order you an extender. It’s free. When you go
in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear,
so
the extender will be long enough for you. The extender
will be just for you, and just for the seat in your
vehicle that you choose. Don’t let someone else use it,
and use it only for the seat
it
is
made to fit. To wear
it, just attach it to the regular safety belt.
To unlatch the belt, just push the button on the buckle.
