Section III Safety Belt
Note:
(1) The fasteners removed must be reinstalled in the original position. If any fasteners need
renewing, the ones with the same part No. are required. However, if there is no such fastener with
the same part No., the ones with the same dimension and intensity (or higher intensity) are
acceptable. The non-recyclable fasteners and the ones need locking by the screw thread, shall be
eliminated from the car. If reinstalling fasteners with designated tightening torques, fasten them to
the given torques. Violating the requirement above may cause the damage of the components or
the system.

system. Therefore, carefully checking and renewing with the components from the original
manufacturer are necessary.
(3) If it is necessary to renew the safety belt, renew the buckle lock and belt together, to ensure the
inosculation between the lock tongue and the buckle lock.
