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.
