D If the seat belt extender has been
connected to the driver’s seat belt
buckle but the seat belt extender
has not also been fastened to the
latch plate of the driver’s seat belt,
the SRS driver’s airbag system will
judge that the driver is wearing the
seat belt even though the seat belt
has not been connected. In this
case, the driver’s airbag may not
activate correctly, causing death or
serious injury in the event of a col-
lision. Be sure to wear the set belt
with the seat belt extender. Other-
wise, there will also not be any ef-
fective protection in a sudden stop
or a collision provided by the seat
belt.
D Be sure to wear the seat belt with-
out the seat belt extender if you
can fasten the seat belt without the
extender.
D Do not use the seat belt extender
when installing a child restraint
system on the front or rear passen-
ger seat. If installing a child re-
straint 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.
