Seat belt, manually adjustable		Maintenance

To shorten, pull the upper part of the double webbing until snug.	Check perodically that the anchor bolts are secure and the belt in good condition. Use water and a mild detergent for cleaning. As the seat belts lose much of their strength when exposed to violent stretching, they should be replaced after collision, even though they may appear to be undamaged. Never modify or repair the belt on your own. but have this done by a Volvo workshop.
