Seat Belt Inspection - Honda 2018 Jazz Manual

Seat Belt Inspection

Regularly check the condition of your seat belts as follows:
• Pull each belt out fully, and look for frays, cuts, burns, and wear.
• Check that the latch plates and buckles work smoothly and the belts retract
easily.
u
If a belt does not retract easily, cleaning the belt may correct the problem. Only
use a mild soap and warm water. Do not use bleach or cleaning solvents. Make
sure the belt is completely dry before allowing it to retract.
Any belt that is not in good condition or working properly will not provide proper
protection and should be replaced as soon as possible.
A belt that has been worn during a crash may not provide the same level of
protection in a subsequent crash. Have your seat belts inspected by a dealer after
any collision.

WARNING
Not checking or maintaining seat belts can
result in serious injury or death if the seat
belts do not work properly when needed.
Check your seat belts regularly and have
any problem corrected as soon as possible.
WARNING: No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from operating to remove
slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.
WARNING: It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact
even if damage to the assembly is not obvious.
WARNING: Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and
chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild soap and water.
The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or damaged.
