Keep
belts clean and dry. Clean periodically with a mild soap solution and lukewarm
water. Keep sharp edges and damaging objects away from belts. Periodically
inspect belts, buckles, retractors, and anchors for damage that could materially
lessen the
effectiveness
of the belt installation and repair or replace the questionable parts. Do not
bleach or dye belts as this may cause severe loss of strength. If necessary, to
replace belts or related attaching parts be sure to tighten lap belt anchor
bolts to 30-45
foot pounds torque.
