Schroth Racing All models - Competition Instructions - Manual (Page 58)

Never position the belt in any other way than as described in this
manual. Improper belt positioning may result in reduced safety
performance or even malfunction of the racing harness.
Never position lap belts too high [extending above the pelvis],
and/or at too low of an angle routing to the mounting point. Lap
belts positioned too high or too low, may result in increased
pelvic movement, submarining and will create extra load on the
anti-sub straps.
Never wear lap belts loosely. Loosely worn lap belts may result in
increased pelvic movement, submarining and will create extra
load on the anti-sub straps.
Loose shoulder belts will result in increased head trajectory
during an accident.
Loose anti-sub straps will allow the lap belt to ride up during an
accident and create submarining or increase head trajectory.
FAILURE TO WEAR AND TIGHTEN THE RACING HARNESS PROPERLY
CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURIES OR DEATH.
H O W T O R EL E A S E Y O U R R A C I N G H A R N E S S
a) loosen shoulder belts [not necessary in case of an emergency]
b) turn rotary buckle by approx. 90° into either direction
c) all latches except one will release from the buckle. On Profi 5- and 6-
point models buckle will stay either with the lap belt or with the anti-
sub strap.
On Formula-Type models the buckle always stays with the lap belt.
On Hybrid
TM models the buckle always stays with a shoulder strap.
Never allow straps to be caught by the seat rail or door when
leaving the vehicle.
Webbing which is caught may be weakened, the racing harness
may fail during an accident and severe injuries or death may
occur.
