• Passengers should not move out of or change seats while the vehicle is moving. A
passenger who is not wearing a seat belt can be thrown against the inside of the
vehicle, against other occupants, or out of the vehicle during a crash or
emergency stop
• Do not use any accessories on seat belts or modify in any way the seat belt
system. Devices claiming to improve occupant comfort or reposition the seat belt
can reduce the protection provided by the seat belt and increase the chance of
serious injury in a crash
• An accident or emergency stop, can damage your seat belt system, even if the
accident is “minor”. Please have your Authorized Mahindra Dealer inspect the
seat belt system after an accident
• Please be aware that any unsecured item in your vehicle, such as your pet,
unsecured child restraint system or a laptop, can become a projectile in the event
of an accident or sudden stop, causing injuries to occupants in the vehicle
Never use a damaged seat belt system. A damaged seat belt will not provide
protection in an accident, resulting in serious injury.
• Seat belt systems can be prone to abuse. They are not indestructible. They must
be handled with care to avoid damage
• Keep the belts clean and dry. Belt retraction may become difficult if the belts and
webbing are soiled. If they need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or lukewarm
water. Never use bleach, dye or abrasive cleaners. These chemicals will severely
weaken the belts
• Retractors in 3-point type seat belts retract the seat belts when not in use. The
inertia lock and coil spring allow the belts to remain comfortable on users during
normal driving. During accidents or abrupt stops, inertia locks restrict the sudden
forward movement of the wearer

Persons with serious medical conditions should also wear a seat belt. Consult your
doctor for specific recommendations before travel.
