Wearing seat belts
- The belt must be tight against the body and not distorted.
- With a three-point type belt, the shoulder section must be across center of the
shoulder, not against the neck. The pelvis section should be as low as possible
across the pelvis, not across the abdomen.
- Do not put any hard, sharp or fragile objects such as pens, glasses or phones
between your body and the seat belt.
Checking the seat belts
- Give a short pull on the seat-belt to test the locking mechanism.
- Repeat this check regularly, for example when putting on the seat belt, in order
to check the mechanism.
During this test, the belt must lock. This means that it must not be possible to
pull the seat belt out of the retracting unit after locking.
The locking mechanism should be immediately replaced and/or repaired if it is
defective.
- Inspect the belts regularly for wear. Have the complete assembly replaced at
once if the belt is worn or damaged.
