On-the-Car Seat Belt Inspection
1. Check that the seat belt is not twisted or caught on
anything.
2. After installing an anchors, check for free move-
ment on its retaining bolt. If necessary, remove the
bolt and check that the washers and other parts are
not damaged or improperly installed.
3. Check the seat belts for damage or discoloration.
Clean with a shop towel if necessary.
CAUTION: Use only soap and water to clean.
NOTE: Dirt built-up in the metal loops of the seat
belt anchors can cause the seat belts to retract
slowly. Wipe the inside of the loops with a clean
cloth dampened in isopropyl alcohol.
4. Check that the seat belt does not lock when pulled
out slowly. The seat belt is designed to lock only
during a sudden stop or impact.
5. Make sure that the seat belt will retract
