OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
LAP & SHOULDER BELT
The combination lap-shoulder belt is equipped with a locking mechanism.
The system adjusts automatically to a person’s size and movements as
long as the pull on the belt is slow. Hard braking or a collision locks the
belt. The belt will also lock when vehicle is going up or down a steep hill
or in a sharp curve.
Make sure all seatbelts are correctly adjusted before moving the vehicle.
Adjustment is made by sliding the adjusting buckle either up or down the
seatbelt until the belt is comfortable. Take care not to over tighten the belt
by removing all of the slack.
Safety Belt Tips
• Anyone riding in your vehicle should wear a correctly adjusted
seatbelt. A responsible operator sees to it that everyone in the
vehicle rides safely and that means with a seatbelt.
• Do not wear a belt over rigid or breakable objects in or on your
clothing, (for example eye glasses, pens, keys) as these may cause
injury in an accident.
• Several layers of heavy clothing may interfere with proper positioning
of belts and reduce the overall effectiveness of the system.
• Keep belt buckles free of any obstruction that may prevent secure
locking.
• Cab or sleeper belts which have been damaged or worn because
of cuts, tears, normal wear or excessive stretch forces from crashes
must be replaced. They may not protect you if you have an accident.
• If belts show damage to any part of their assembly, such as webbing,
bindings, buckles or retractors, they must be replaced.
• Do not allow seatbelts to become damaged by getting caught in
the door or seat hardware, or by rubbing against sharp objects.
• The belts must be kept clean or the retractors may not work properly.
• Never bleach or dye seatbelts; chemicals can weaken them. Do,
however, keep them clean by following the directions on the care
label on the belts. Let them dry completely before allowing them
to retract.
