jects in or on your clothing, such as eye glas-
ses, pens, keys, etc. as these may cause inju-
ry.

with proper positioning of belts.
fBelts must not rub against sharp objects or
damage may occur to the belt.

stretch forces in an accident must be inspect-
ed or replaced to ensure their continued effec-
tiveness in restraining you.

which have been triggered. In addition, the an-
chor points of the belts should be checked.
