Safety Belt Extender If the vehicle's safety belt will fasten around you, you should useit. But if a safety belt long enough to fasten, your isn't dealer will orderyou 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, andjust for the seat in your vehicle that you choose. Don'tlet 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 your belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and anchorages are working properly. Look for any other loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If you see anything that might keep a safety belt system from doing its job, have repaired. it Tom or frayed safety belts may not protect you in a crash. They can rip apart under impact forces. If a belt is tom orfrayed, 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.) 1-31
