Re ularly check the condition of all seat belts. f the webbin or other parts of
the seat belt are dama ed immediately have the seat belt removed and re-
placed by a specialist ara e. Dama ed seat belts pose a reat dan er and can
cause serious or fatal in uries.
eat belts and their components must never be cleaned chemically or
come in contact with corrosive li uids solvents or sharp ob ects. his would
considerably impair the stren th of the webbin .
A seat belt must be dried completely before it is rolled up because mois-
ture may dama e the inertia reel and impair its function.
ever let ob ects and li uids enter into the slots of the belt buckles. his
may impair the functions of the belt buckles and seat belts.
ever try to repair modify or remove the seat belts yourself.
Have dama ed seat belts immediately replaced by seat belts that are ap-
proved by Škoda for the vehicle. eat belts which have been sub ected to
stress in an accident and were therefore stretched must be replaced by a spe-
cialist ara e. he renewal may be necessary even if no dama e is obvious.
