Safety Belts - Porsche 928 ST1991 Owner's Manual

Safety belt warning system
An audio-visual warning system is inter-
connected with the driver's safety belt.
Every time the ignition is turned on, the seat
belt warning light in the instrument cluster
will come on for about 6 seconds as a remin-
der to buckle up. If the driver does not fasten
the safety belt, the gong will continue for the
duration of this 6 second period. The gong
will go off as soon as the driver has buckled
up.

Inertia reel retractor
The combination lap/shoulder belt with iner-
tia reel locking mechanism adjusts automat-
ically to your size and movements as long as
the pull on the belt is slow.
Rapid deceleration during hard braking or a
collision locks the belt. The belt will also lock
when you drive up or down a steep hill or in
a sharp curve otherwise the shoulder belt
will not inhibit your upper body movement.
• To fasten, grasp belt and pull belt in con-
tinuous slow motion across your chest
and lap.
• Insert belt tongue into buckle on inboard
side of seat. Push down until it securely
locks with an audible click. Pull belt to
check.
• Pull shoulder section to make sure belt
fits snugly across the hips.
• Belts should fit snugly across the pelvis
and chest. Make sure any slack is wound
on the retractor.
