If you are in any doubt as to the unimpaired functional capability of restraint system components, these components must be replaced in the interests of safety!

If a seat belt has to be replaced following an accident (e.g. in the event of a frontal and/or side impact with permanently deformed impact dampers/deformation elements or cross-members), the complete seat belt must be replaced! The complete seat belt comprises:

• Top belt
• Lower strap
• Anchor fitting tensioner
• Seat belt buckle (buckle tensioner)
• Seatbelt height adjustment
• Retaining screws of all components

  The following must also be checked and if necessary replaced:

• Seatbelt mountings on the car body
• Seatbelt mountings on the seat
• Seat runners
• Seat structure (frame, etc.)
