instructions
Most states require that all passengers wear seat belts when a
car is in motion. Please check with your local authorities for
further information! Regardless of the law in your State, it only
makes sense to buckle up, so before you start your car, make
sure that you and all of your passengers are properly restrained.
The SCHROTH asm harnessbelt system when properly
installed and used according to applicable instructions can
mitigate injury. Of course, the ability of any restraint system to
mitigate or prevent injury is directly related to the type and
severity of the accident.
Only the Quick Fit Pro is designed to be used with a HANS device.
Standard Quick Fit Harnesses are not designed and tested to be used with
HANS
®
or other head and neck restraints e.g. Hutchens device.
Shoulder belts may slip off the HANS
®
and crotch straps e.g. of a Hutchens
device cannot be properly attached to the lap belt. Malfunction can result in
serious personal injuries or death.
The following pictures show the correct installation and use of
SCHROTH asm harnessbelts:

Improper use of any seatbelt can cause serious personal
injury or death.
To help reduce the risk of serious injury in an accident:
• Never strap more than one person in place, with each
harness
system.
• Never wear the harness system at the same time as the
original equipment seat belts.
• Never use the lap belt portion of the harness system
without the shoulder belts.
• Always make sure that lap belt and shoulder belts are
not twisted when worn.
• Never use the harness belt system for children under
the age of 12 years or to install an infant seat or child
seat.
• Never use the harness belt system for persons who
weigh less than 88 lbs or those who are less than 4`11"
tall, regardless of age.
• Always wear the lap belt portion of the harness system
low and tight across the pelvis. This is also recommended
for the stock 3-point belt whenever it is worn.
• Never wear the belts over heavy clothing as it can
interfere with proper positioning and adjustment of the
belts, reducing the overall effectiveness of the system.
• Never wear the belts over rigid or breakable objects in
or on your clothing, such as eye glasses, pens, jewelry
keys etc. as these may cause injury.
• Never allow lap or shoulder belts to rub against sharp
objects.
• Never allow the belts to be damaged by becoming
caught in door or seat hardware.
