Three Point Seat Belt - Daewoo Cielo Owner's Manual

WARNING
ï Never wear the belts with straps
twisted or with a buckle release
button facing downward or inward.
ï Do not put anything into the opening
where the safety belt passes
through the trim panel. This may
jam the retractor or damage the
belt.
ï The seat belt will provide
maximum protection for its wearer
if the recliner seat back is placed
in fully upright position. When the
seat back is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will
slide under the belt, especially in
a forward impact accident, and
may be injured by the belt or by
striking the instrument panel or
seat backs.
ï No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted
to remove slack.
WARNING
ï Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
ï Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water. The belt
should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or
damaged.
ï Periodically inspect seat belt
assemblies for excessive wear and
damage. It is essential to replace
the entire seat belt assembly after
it has been worn in a severe
impact, even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious.

THREE POINT SEAT BELT

Each Daewoo vehicle is equipped with three
point seat belts with automatic retractors,
allowing freedom of body movement when
driving at even, constant speeds, although
the spring-tensioned belts are always a
snug fit.
This type of belt requires no length
adjustment. Once worn, the belt adjusts
itself to the movement of wearer, but in the
event of a sudden or strong shock, the belt
automatically locks to restrain the wearer's
body.
