The

Safety belts

Extra equipment on this vehicle in-
cludes safety belts for both the front
seats. Utilize this simple but effective
safety device. The practical design of the
belt type used makes it so simple to
engage and disengage the belts so that
you get used to fitting the belts as an
automatic procedure before starting the
engine.
The length of the belt can be adjusted on
that part of the belt which Is attached
to the floor. Make sure that the belt has
che right length for you.
When the belt catch is taken from the
button on which it is hung on the door
pillar, press in the handle in the middle.
The belt then passes round the waist and
over the chest and should be locked in
the fitting between the front seats,
To disengage the belt press the handle
in and lift it straight up. The belt should
then be hung up on the button on the
door pillar.
Make a habit of always hanging up the
belt when It Is not being used. If it is
allowed to lie on the floor it will soon
become dirty and frayed and will hinder
getting in and out of the vehicle. Check
now and then that the bolts that hold the
belt are properly tightened. If the belt
has become dirty it is best cleaned with
water and a synthetic washing
compound. Gasoline and similar must
not be used since this can cause stains.
