Seatbelt Maintenance - Subaru 2004 Legacy Owner's Manual

Do not allow the retractor to roll up the seat-
belt too quickly. Otherwise, the metal tongue
plates may hit against the trim, resulting in
damaged trim.
Have the seatbelt fully rolled up so that the
tongue plates are neatly stored. A hanging
tongue plate can swing and hit against the trim
during driving, causing damage to the trim.

NOTE
When folding down the rear seat cushion, store
the seatbelts in the seatbelt pocket to prevent
them falling below the cushion.

Seatbelt maintenance

To clean the seatbelts, use a mild soap and lukewarm
water. Never bleach or dye the belts because this
could seriously affect their strength.
Inspect the seatbelts and attachments including the
Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
