For safety, you should check the
condition of your seat belts regularly.

Pull each belt out fully, and look for
frays, cuts, burns, and wear. Check
that the latches work smoothly and
the belts retract easily. If a belt does
not retract easily, cleaning the belt
may correct the problem (see page

). Any belt that is not in good

condition or working properly will
not provide good protection and
should be replaced as soon as
possible.

If a seat belt is worn during a crash,
it must be replaced by your dealer. A
belt that has been worn during a
crash may not provide the same level
of protection in a subsequent crash.

The dealer should also inspect the
anchors for damage and replace
them if needed. If the automatic seat
belt tensioners activate during a
crash, they must be replaced.

Honda provides a limited warranty
on seat belts. See your

booklet for

details.

The tensioners can be activated
during a collision in which the front
airbags

. In this case, the

airbags would not be needed, but the
additional restraint could be helpful.

If the tensioner is activated, the SRS
indicator comes on and the tensioner
must be replaced.
