Chevrolet Silverado: Seat Belts / Seat Belt Care
Keep belts clean and dry.
Seat belts should be properly cared for and maintained.
Seat belt hardware should be kept dry and free of dust or debris. As necessary,
exterior hard surfaces and seat belt webbing may be lightly cleaned with mild soap
and water. Ensure there is not excessive dust or debris in the mechanism. If dust
or debris exists in the system please see the dealer. Parts may need to be replaced
to ensure proper functionality of the system.
Warning
Do not bleach or dye seat belt webbing. It may severely weaken the webbing.
In a crash, they might not be able to provide adequate protection. Clean and rinse
seat belt webbing only with mild soap and lukewarm water. Allow the webbing to dry.
Periodically check the seat belt reminder, seat belts, buckles, latch plates,
retractors, shoulder belt height adjusters (if equipped), and seat belt anchorages
to make sure they are all in working order...
Warning
A crash can damage the seat belt system in the vehicle. A damaged seat
belt system may not properly protect the person using it, resulting in serious injury
or even death in a crash...
