WARNING
Failure to properly inspect and maintain the seat belt can cause serious injury or loss of life.
1.Check the full length of the seat belt webbing for cuts, wear, fraying, dirt and stiffness. See Figure
2.Check the seat belt webbing in areas exposed to ultra violet rays from the sun or extreme dust or dirt. If the original color of the webbing in these areas is extremely faded and/or is packed with dirt, the physical strength of this webbing may have deteriorated. If this condition exists, replace the seat belt system.
3.Check the buckle and latch for proper operation and determine if the latch plate is excessively worn, deformed, or if the buckle is damaged or cracked. See Figure

The potential exposure of the seat belt to severe environmental conditions make it crucial to inspect the seat belt system regularly.
It is recommended that the seat belt be inspected on a daily basis for signs of damage. Any seat belt system that shows cuts, fraying, extreme or unusual wear, significant discoloration due to UV exposure, dirt or stiffness, abrasion to the seat belt webbing, or damage to the buckle, latch plate, hardware or any other obvious problem should be replaced immediately.
