• Not checking or maintaining seat belts can result in
serious injury or death if the seat belts do not work
properly when needed. Check the belts regularly and have
any problem corrected immediately.
• No one should travel in a seat with an inoperative seat belt.
Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing
with polishes, oils or chemicals and particularly battery acid. Use
only a mild detergent to clean the webbing, never use bleach or
dye, and allow the belt to dry fully before using the car. Ensure
that the buckle mechanism is kept free of dirt as there is no
provision for disassembly for cleaning purposes.
