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
1.1-ee.
Whe,n 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.
Checking
Your
Restraint Systems
Now
and then,
make
sure
the
safety belt reminder light
and
all yo~~r belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and
anchorages are working properly.
Look
for
any
other
loose or
dan~aged
safety belt system parts.
If
you see
anything that
tnighl
keep
a
safety belt system
from
doing
its
job,
have
it
repaired.
Torn or frayed safety belts may not protect you
in
a
crash. They can
rip
apart under impact forces.
If
a belt
is
torn or I-i-ayed, get a new one right away.
Also
look
for
any opened or broken air bag covers. and
have them repaired or replaced. (The
air
bag system
does
not need regular maintenance.)
