Read complete installation guide
before installing seat belt.
Always use and follow the vehicle manufac-
turer's installation guide if available. Use this
installation guide in addition to the vehicle
manufacturer's guide.
This seat belt must be installed only in
vehicles which have anchorage points that
meet FMVSS 210 requirements.
Use fasteners that meet, or exceed, the
requirements identified in FMVSS 209. Use
of self-locking nuts is recommended when
bolts don't have thread lock patches.
Interior trim must not interfere with seat belt
flow. Seat belt must freely pull out when the
seat belt is latched, and fully retract when it
is unlatched.
Seat belt must not be allowed to rub against
any sharp edges. Excessive belt wear can
occur if seat, vehicle structure or trim
interferes with belt flow.
Be sure seat belt is not twisted during
installation.
The retractor must be handled with care. It
must never be dropped, adjusted, taken
apart or tampered with. If it is damaged or
there is a doubt that the belt functions
properly, DO NOT USE IT. Replace it with an
entirely new system.
Please note
This information is not all inclusive and will
not cover every seat, pedestal and vehicle
configuration.
Installer shall have sole responsibility for
proper selection, application, installation
and testing of the seat belt in accordance
with FMVSS207, 208 and 210 as amended, or
any other applicable or additional specifica-
tion such as for use outside the U.S., and for
providing instructions to the ultimate user
concerning proper use and periodic
maintenance of the seat belts.
