Care of seat belts
Periodic inspection
WARNING
All seat  belts  should be  inspected peri-
odically for wear  or damage of any kind.
Any damaged  parts should  be replaced
as soon as possible.
Seat belt systems should never be disas-
sembled  or  modified.  In  addition,  care
should be taken to assure that seat belts
and belt  hardware  are not  damaged by
seat hinges, doors or other abuse.
Riding   with  a   reclined   seatback
increases  your  chance  of  serious
or fatal injuries in the event of a col-
lision or  sudden stop.  The  protec-
tion of  your restraint  system  (seat
belts   and    air   bags)   is   greatly
reduced   by  reclining   your   seat.
Seat  belts  must  be  snug   against
your hips and chest to work proper-
Keep belts clean and dry
Seat belts should be  kept clean and dry.
If   belts   become   dirty,   they   can   be
cleaned  by  using  a mild  soap  solution
and  warm   water.  Bleach,  dye,   strong
detergents  or  abrasives  should  not  be
used  because  they   may  damage  and
weaken the fabric.
WARNING
When you  return the rear seatback
to its upright position after the rear
seatback was folded down, be care-
ful not to damage the seat belt web-
bing  or  buckle.   Be  sure  that  the
webbing  or   buckle  does  not   get
caught or pinched  in the rear  seat.
A seat  belt with damaged  webbing
or buckle will  not be as strong and
could  possibly  fail  during  a  colli-
sion  or  sudden  stop,  resulting  in
serious injury.
ly.
The   more   the   seatback   is
reclined,  the   greater   the  chance
that  an  occupant's  hips  will slide
under the  lap belt  causing serious
internal  injuries or  the  occupant's
neck could strike the shoulder belt.
Drivers   and   passengers   should
always sit  well back  in their seats,
properly belted,  and with  the seat-
backs upright.
When to replace seat belts
Entire   in-use   seat   belt   assembly   or
assemblies  should   be  replaced  if   the
vehicle has been involved in an accident.
This should  be done even if  no damage
is  visible. Additional  questions concern-
ing seat belt operation should be directed
to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
