7 Adjustment of the headrest and initial adjustment
of the tail strap
wrong way wrong way right way
Belts must not have
any sag. The tail strap must
not be misdirected
by upholsteries or
the rear seat
cushions.
The headrest is
properly adjusted
and the shoulder
belts can move
freely without
slack.
a) After choosing the correct seating position, put the belt on
and adjust the lap belt so it fits tightly in the bend between
the pelvic crest and the upper thigh. The release buckle
should be located in the center in front of your body. If
necessary, lengthen the tail strap first.
b) Next adjust the shoulder belts: Make sure there is approx. 4
inches (10 cm) of loose belt protruding from each shoulder
belt adjuster.
c) One of the two shoulder belts should now be tight against
the shoulder; the other shoulder belt should be looser.
d) Tighten the looser shoulder belt until both shoulder belts
have the same pressure over the shoulders and in the
chest area.
Make sure the shoulder straps are properly adjusted whenever
the SCHROTH harnessbelt is worn.
For lap belt adjustment see following paragraph.
8 Putting on the belt
a) After choosing the correct seating position, put on the belt
and adjust the lap belt so it fits tightly in the bend
between the pelvic crest and the upper thigh. The release
buckle should be located in the center in front of your
body. (HINT- slide the seat back - tighten the lap belt –
move the seat forward to maximize lap belt tightness.)

Improper fit of any lap belt can cause serious personal
injury or death.
• ALWAYS make sure that the lap belt is tightly adjusted.
A lap belt in a harness or 3-point system that is too
loose will impair the performance of the system.
• The lap belt must fit tightly in the bend between the
pelvic crest and the upper thigh!
• Make sure belt is properly adjusted when a different
person uses the belt or each time the seat is readjusted.
(Heed WARNING on adjuster.)
• In order to get an even tighter fit of the lap belt, we
recommend that you move your seat back a little, adjust
the length of your belt as described above and move the
seat forward to its normal position. This will help to tighten
the lap belt even more. This recommendation applies only
to two door coupe models where one lap belt mounting
point s is attached directly to the chassis.
b)
Adjust the length of the inboard shoulder belt until both
belts exert equal pressure against the upper torso.

9 Use of the rear seats
Never wear the SCHROTH harnessbelt if any rear seating
position is occupied. Both front seat occupants must then
use original equipment 3-point belts. The rear seat
occupant could interact with the tail strap of the SCHROTH
harnessbelt during an accident and cause serious injury to
himself or to the wearer of the harness belt.
