Seat belt inspection
(1) Check the belts for cuts, worn or frayed webbing and for cracked or deformed
metallic parts. Replace the belt assembly if defective.
(2) A dirty belt should
be cleaned with neutral detergent in warm water. After rinsing in water, let it
dry in the shade. Do not attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts because this affects
their characteristics.
WARNING
(1) All seat belt assemblies including retractors and attaching hardware
should be inspected by an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer after any collision. We recommend
that seat belt assemblies in use during a collision be replaced unless the collision
was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly.
(2) Do
not attempt to repair or replace any part of the seat belt assemblies; this work
should be done by an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer. Failure to have an authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer perform the work could reduce the effectiveness of the belts and
could result in serious injury in the event of a collision.
(3) Once the pre-tensioner
has activated, it cannot be re-used. It must be replaced together with the retractor.
(4) The entire pre-tensioner seat belt system must be inspected by an authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer.
