Servicing and Replacing Seat Belts Notice

Servicing and Replacing Seat Belts Notice

Notice: To prevent possible seat belt damage, refer to the following items before servicing or replacing lap and shoulder belts, including single loop belt systems:

^ Lap and shoulder belts will be serviced as follows:
- Replace only the part in question.
- All belts need to be serviced as a set to assure the belt components are from the same supplier.
- Do not intermix standard and deluxe belts on front or rear seats.
- All attachment hardware must be replaced, not reused.

^ Keep sharp edges and damaging objects away from belts.

^ Avoid bending or damaging any portion of the belt buckle or latch plate.

^ Do not bleach or dye belt or strap webbing. Clean with a mild soap solution and water.

^ When installing lap or shoulder belt anchor bolts, start the bolts by hand to ensure that the bolts are threaded straight.

^ Do not attempt repairs on lap or shoulder belt retractor mechanisms to lap belt retractor covers. Replace defective assemblies with new service replacement parts.

^ Do not attempt to remove the seat belt retractor cover. The cover and the long rivet securing the cover to the retractor are not available as service replacement parts.
