purpose of the belt.

contamination of the webbing with
p o l i s h e s , o i l s a n d c h e m i c a l s .
Cleaning should be carried out
using mild soap and water only.
• The belt should be replaced if

can be used again.
WARNING
• Belts should not be worn with
t w i s t e d s t r a p s . E a c h s e a t b e l t
assembly must only be used by one
occupant. It is dangerous to put a
belt around a child being carried on
t h e o c c u p a n t ' s l a p . N o
modifications or additions should
be made by the user, which either
prevents the seat belt adjusting
devices from operating to remove
s l a c k o r p r e v e n t t h e s e a t b e l t
assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack. Belt retraction may
become difficult if the belts and
rings are soiled. Ensure they are
always clean.
• Replace the damaged seat belts
after an accident. If not replaced, it
will increase the level of injury
during the next collision. Failure to
comply can lead to major injury or
death
