Safety belt extension assembly

If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, there is a 20 cm (8

Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier as the safety
belt. Manufacturer identification is located at the end of the webbing on
the label. Also, use the safety belt extension only if the safety belt is too
short for you when fully extended.

Do not use extensions to change the fit of the shoulder belt
across the torso.

belt height adjusters, shoulder belt guide on seatback (if equipped), child
