Seat belts
Never use seat belt clips, fastening rings or
simil
ar items to alter the position of the belt
webbing.
Frayed or torn seat belts or damage to
the connections, belt retractors or parts of
the buckle could cause severe injuries in the
event of an accident. Therefore, you must
check the condition of all seat belts at regu-
lar intervals.
Seat belts which have been worn in an ac-
cident and have been stretched must be re-
placed by a specialised workshop. Renewal
may be necessary even if there is no ap-
parent damage. The belt anchorage should
also be checked.
Do not attempt to repair a damaged seat
belt yourself. The seat belts must not be re-
moved or modified in any way.
The belts must be kept clean, otherwise
the retractors may not work properly.
