Inspection
All parts of the seat belts, including the belt fabric, should be
regularly inspected for fraying, loosening, wear and other damage.
Keep the belts in good condition at all times to reduce the chance
of being injured in an accident, and to minimize any injuries that
do occur. Make sure the buckles, retractors, tongue plates, guides
and anchors all work properly.
Don't let anything get inside the buckle or the retractor; it could
cause latch or retractor failure.
Cleaning
The belts should alw ays be kept clean and dry; w et or damp belts
can cause rewinding problems. To clean the belts, pull them all the
w ay out of their retractors and scrub them with warm water and a
mild soap; then let them air-dry fully extended, in the shade, with
the car window s open.
f t W A R N IN G
• Never bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical solvents;
it will weaken the fabric.
• Do not remove the seat belts from the car to wash them.
Replacement
Replace the seat belt if:
1. The belting is cut, punctured, burned, etc.
2. The buckle or retractor does not work properly.
3. They were being worn at the time of a collision (also check for
damage at the seat belt anchor points).
4. Their condition is questionable.
