13.16 SEAT/SHOULDER BELTS
1. Inspection:
Twice a year check that belts, buckles, latch plates,
retractors and anchorages work properly: look for
loose parts or damage (without disassembly) that
could keep the restraint system from doing its job.
Have a belt assembly replaced if the webbing has
been cut or otherwise damaged. Also restraint sys-
tems should be replaced and anchorages properly
repaired if they were in areas damaged by a colli-
sion, whether the belt was in use or not. If there
is any question, replace the belt system. Damage
whether visible or not, could result in serious per-
sonal injury in the event of an accident.
2. Maintenance:
a. Hand wash webbing with warm water and mild
soap. Rinse thoroughly and line or air dry.
b. Do not bleach or re-dye webbing, since it could
become severely weakened by this process.
c. Inspect seat belt assembly regularly. If the
assembly does not operate properly or if the
webbing is torn or frayed, the seat belt must
be replaced.
