Nissan Sentra Owners Manual: Seat belt maintenance

Nissan Sentra Owners Manual / Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system / Seat belts / Seat belt maintenance

To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a mild soap solution or any solution recommended for cleaning upholstery or carpet.
Then wipe with a cloth and allow the seat belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow the seat belts to retract until they are completely dry.
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean, dry cloth.
Periodically check to see that the seat belt and the metal components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and anchors, work properly. If loose parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage on the webbing is found, the entire seat belt assembly should be replaced.
