SAFETY - Seat 1 properly use the seat belts and bunk restraint in the vehicle. DO NOT strap in more than one person with each belt. Keep seat belt and bunk restraint buckles free of any obstruction that may prevent secure locking. Damaged or worn belts in the cab or sleeper subjected to excessive stretch forces from normal wear, must be replaced. They may not protect you if you are in an accident. Any belts or restraints that have been subjected to an accident should be inspected for any loose (attaching) hardware or damaged buckles. If belts show damage to any part of assembly, such as webbing, bindings, buckles or retractors, they must be replaced.
DO NOT allow safety belts (seat or bunk) to become damaged by getting caught in door, bunk, or seat hardware, or rubbing against sharp objects. All belts must be kept clean or the retractors may not work properly. Never bleach or dye seat or bunk restraint belts: chemicals can weaken them. Do, however, keep them clean by following the care label on the belts. Let them dry completely before allowing them to retract or be stowed away. Make sure the seat belts and bunk restraint of the unoccupied passenger seat or bunk is fully wound up on its retractor or is stowed, so that the belt or restraint tongue is in its properly stowed position.

They will not be available to keep you and your passengers safe. If any seat belt or bunk restraint is not working properly, see an authorized dealer for repair or replacement.
