Range Rover Evoque: Seat belt safety
Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild
soap and water.
The belt should be replaced if
webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in a
severe impact even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious.
If any damage, wear, cuts, defects, or
impaired operation are noted with the
seat belts, the vehicle should be taken
to a Land Rover Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for immediate attention. Do
not use the vehicle if the seat belts
cannot be operated correctly.
Do not carry hard, fragile, or sharp
items between your person and the
seat belt.
Seat belts should be worn by all
vehicle occupants, for every journey
no matter how short.
Never wear just the lap belt or just the
shoulder belt of a lap/shoulder
diagonal seat belt. Both of these
actions are extremely dangerous and
may increase your risk of injury.
When using seat belts to restrain
items other than occupants, take care
to ensure that the belts are not
damaged, or exposed to sharp edges.
