This extender will be only for you and for the particular vehicle and seat. Even if it plugs into other seat belts, it may not hold in the critical moment of a crash. When ordering an extender, only order one that provides the necessary additional length to fasten the seat belt properly. Please contact your Authorized Mazda Dealer for more information. WARNING Do not use an extender that is too long: Using an extender that is too long is dangerous. The seat belt will not fit properly.

Seat Belt Extender

If your seat belt is not long enough, even

when fully extended, a seat belt extender

may be available to you at no charge from

your Authorized Mazda Dealer.

This extender will be only for you and for

the particular vehicle and seat. Even if it

plugs into other seat belts, it may not hold

in the critical moment of a crash.

When ordering an extender, only order

one that provides the necessary additional

length to fasten the seat belt properly.

Please contact your Authorized Mazda

Dealer for more information.

WARNING

Do not use a seat belt extender unless

it is necessary:

Using a seat belt extender when not

necessary is dangerous. The seat belt

will be too long and not fit properly. In

an accident, the seat belt will not

provide adequate protection and you

could be seriously injured. Only use

the extender when it is required to

fasten the seat belt properly.

Do not use an improper extender:

Using a seat belt extender that is for

another person or a different vehicle

or seat is dangerous. The seat belt will

not provide adequate protection and

the user could be seriously injured in

an accident. Only use the extender

provided for you and for the particular

vehicle and seat. NEVER use the

extender in a different vehicle or seat.

WARNING

Do not use an extender that is too

long:

Using an extender that is too long is

dangerous. The seat belt will not fit

properly. In an accident, the seat belt

will not provide adequate protection

and you could be seriously injured. Do

not use the extender or choose one

shorter in length if the distance

between the extender's buckle and the

center of the user's body is less than

15cm (6 in).

NOTE

When not in use, remove the seat belt

extender and store it in the vehicle. If

the seat belt extender is left connected,

the seat belt extender might get

damaged as it will not retract with the

rest of the seat belt and can easily fall

out of the door when not in use and be

damaged. In addition, the seat belt

warning light will not illuminate and

function properly.
