installs in the vehicle-mounted “L” track. A female
receptacle is positioned on the opposite end of the ex-
tension belt for attachment to a Toyota factory-installed
upper torso lap and shoulder belt. See the illustrations
on pages 30 and 31 and photos on page 34.
Operate the Toyota lap and shoulder belt as instructed
in your Toyota owner’s manual. Follow all safety
precautions. Connect the Toyota lap and shoulder
belt to the lap belt extension. Position the upper torso
(shoulder) belt across the center of the shoulder.
Position the lap belt low across the front of the pelvis
(near hip). See the illustrations on pages 30 and 31
and photos on page 34.
Position of the lap belt buckle, after adjustment, is to
be located near hip position. The belt is to be worn
low and snugly. Adjustment of the lap belt extension is
to be made at adjuster buckle. Wheelchair occupant
restraints should not be held away from the body by
wheelchair components such as armrests or wheels.
Keep belts clear of sharp objects. Do not alter
belts. Do not interchange belts from one position
to another. Keep the supplied belts together as a
complete set.
%HOWDQG7UDFN0DLQWHQDQFH Inspect belt as-
semblies frequently. Any defects such as belt cuts,
fraying or malfunctioning call for replacement of the
entire belt assembly. “L” track must be clean and
not worn, bent or otherwise damaged (prohibiting
proper belt attachment). If there is any sign of dam-
age, wear, abnormal condition or improper operation
of belts, belt hardware (hooks, keepers, latch plate,
receptacle), or track, discontinue use and replace
components immediately.
Severe conditions (weather, environment, heavy
usage, etc.) may require more frequent inspections.
Exposure to severe conditions will dramatically
reduce the life of the system.
