Seat Belt: Description and Operation

SEAT BELT AND HARNESS OPERATION
A hard pull on the shoulder belt will NOT lock the belt. The retractor has a pendulum weight which locks the shoulder belt during rapid deceleration of the vehicle.

Belts from different models are not interchangeable and no attempt should be made to mix belt lengths.

Safety belts should be worn whenever the vehicle is in motion. The operation and mounting of the belts should not be tampered with at any time. When removal, installation, or repair is necessary, refer to illustrations for proper system locations and mounting hardware. If the belts are removed for any reason, and the vehicle is to be driven, the seat belt retaining bolts should be reinstalled to prevent exhaust fumes from entering the vehicle.
