Check seat belt buckle:
–  Insert buckle latch in the belt buckle until a click is heard. Check whether the locking mechanism engages, by tugging forcefully on the seat belt.
l  Replace the seat belt and buckle with a new orginal part even if the buckle latch fails to lock in the buckle only once out of at least five tests.
Check buckle release:
–  Release seat belt by pressing the seat belt buckle button.
–  If the belt is loose the latch must eject independently from the belt buckle.
l  Test at least 5 times. Replace the seat belt and buckle with a new original part if the buckle latch fails to eject just once.
  WARNING
Never use lubricants to eliminate noises or to smoothen the operation of the buttons on seat buckles.
