After any collision, inspect all seat
belt assemblies, including retractors
and other attached hardwares (i.e.
guide rail set). Nissan recommends to
replace all seat belt assemblies in
use during a collision, unless not

Also inspect seat belt assemblies not
in use during a collision, and replace
if damaged or improperly operating.

If any component of seat belt assem-
bly is questionable, do not repair.
Replace as seat belt assembly.

If webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged,
replace belt assembly.

Never oil tongue and buckle.

Use a genuine seat belt assembly.
For seat belt pre-tensioner,
refer to section RS.
