Seat Belt Inspection
Regularly check the condition of your seat belts as follows:
Pull each belt out fully and look for frays, cuts, burns, and wear.
Check that the latch plates and buckles work smoothly and the belts retract easily. If a belt
does not retract easily, cleaning the belt may correct the problem. Only use a mild soap and
warm water. Do not use bleach or cleaning solvents. Make sure the belt is completely dry
before allowing it to retract.
Any belt that is not in good condition or working properly will not provide proper protection
and should be replaced as soon as possible.
A belt that has been worn during a crash may not provide the same level of protection in a
subsequent crash. Have your seat belts inspected by an authorized Acura NSX dealer after
any collision.
Not checking or maintaining seat belts can result in serious injury or death if the
seat belts do not work properly when needed.
Check your seat belts regularly and have any problem corrected as soon as
possible.
WARNING
n
Fastening a Seat Belt
Adjust your seat to the proper position (see page 60) and then follow the below steps:
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly.
2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle, then tug on the belt
to make sure the buckle is secure. Make sure that the belt
is not twisted or caught on anything.
3. Position the lap part of the belt as low as possible across
your hips, then pull up on the shoulder part of the belt
so the lap part fits snugly. This lets your strong pelvic
bones take the force of a crash and reduces the chance of
internal injuries.
4. If necessary, pull up on the belt again to remove any slack,
then make sure that the belt rests across the center of
your chest and over your shoulder. This spreads the forces
of a crash over the strongest bones in your upper body.
To release the belt, push the red PRESS button and then guide
the belt by hand until it has retracted completely.
Pull out slowly.
