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 snugged against
your hips and chest to work proper-
ly.   The   more    the    seatback    is
reclined, the greater  the chance an
occupant's hips will slide under the
lap  belt   causing  serious  internal
injuries.   Also,  the   shoulder   belt
may  strike   the   occupant's  neck.
Drivers   and   passengers   should
always sit  well back  in their seats,
properly belted,  and with  the seat-
backs upright.
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 has been folded down, be
careful not to damage  the seat belt
webbing 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 could possibly fail during
a  collision or  sudden stop,  result-
ing in serious injury. If the webbing
or buckles  are damaged,  get them
replaced immediately.
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.
