Porsche 928 1982 Owner's Manual page 20

Adjusting the belt
For best protection, belts should fit snugly
across lap and chest. If belt has too much
slack, pull shoulder section in direction of
arrow to make sure the belt is drawn snug
around your hips.
Make sure the shoulder belt does not press
against solid or fragile items, such as ball
point pens, pipe, lighter or glasses.
Do not wear the belts loosely.
Do not strap in more than one person with
each belt.
Releasing the belt
To unfasten belt, push the red release but-
ton marked PRESS. Belt tongue will spring
out of buckle.
To store lap/shoulder belt, allow belt to wind
up on retractor as you guide belt tongue to
its stowed position on door post. Mark sec-
tion across your lap with moveable stop to
keep belt tongue from sliding down when
belt is wound up.
The belt of the unoccupied passenger seat
should always be fully wound up, with belt
tongue in stowed position. This reduces the
possibility of the belt tongue becoming a
striking object in case of a sudden stop.
Belt care
Keep belts fully wound up when not in use. In
properly stowed position, belts are protected
from dirt and damage.
Check belts and mechanisms regularly. If
belts do not work properly, see your Porsche
dealer to have them repaired or replaced. Do
not modify or disassemble the safety belts.
If belts show damage to webbing, bindings,
buckles or retractors, they should be replaced.
Belts that have been subjected to excessive
stretch forces in an accident must be replaced.
Keep belts clean. If they need cleaning, use
a mild soap solution, but do not remove belts
from car. Do not use other cleaning agents
as they will weaken the webbing.
Never bleach or dye safety belts.
Do not allow safety belts to retract until they
are completely dry. Dry belts in shade.
The seatbelt should not be used to hold a
child's seat as the diagonal belt will not
provide the needed protection.
