2005 HONDA ACCORD COUPE belt

Dirt build-up in the loops of the seat
belt anchors can cause the belts to
retract slowly. Wipe the insides of
the loops with a clean cloth
dampened in mild soap and warm
water or isopropyl alcohol.If you use an aftermarket floor mat,
make sure it f its properly and that it
canbeusedwiththefloormat
anchor. Do not put additional f loor
mats on top of the anchored mat.
This f ilter removes the dust and
pollenthatisbroughtinfromthe
outside through the heating and
cooling system/climate control
system.
Have your Honda dealer replace this
f ilter every 30,000 miles (48,000 km)
under normal conditions. It should
be replaced every 15,000 miles
(24,000 km) if you drive primarily in
urban areas that have high
concentrations of soot in the air, or if
the f low f rom the climate control
system becomes less than usual.
Clean dirty seat belts with a sof t
brush and a mixture of mild soap and
warm water. Do not use bleach, dye,
or cleaning solvents that can weaken
the belt material. Let the belts air
drybeforeyouusethevehicle.
If you remove the f loor mats, make
sure to re-anchor them when you put
them back in your vehicle.
The driver’s and right rear f loor
mats that came with your vehicle
hook over the f loor mat anchors.
This keeps the f loor mats f rom
sliding f orward and possibly
interf ering with the pedals or
marking the f ront passenger’s
weight sensors inef f ective.
