INSPECTION
Seat belts and attaching parts can affect the vital components and
systems of a vehicle.
Therefore, they should be inspected carefully and replaced with
genuine parts only.
Seat belt
Its webbing or strap should be free from damage.
Retractor assembly
It should lock webbing when pulled quickly.
The front seat belt retractor assembly (1) should pass the above
inspection and should lock webbing even when tilted (approx.

Anchor bolts should be torqued to specification.
Belt latch
It should be secure when latched.

Seat belt anchor bolts should have an unified fine thread
(7/16–20 UNF). Under no circumstances should any different
