3. Opsætning og placering

For optimal effectiveness, the MOTORBUDDY Car Safety Hammer should be placed in an easily accessible location within your vehicle. Consider the following common placement options:

• Door Pocket: Keep it within reach in the driver's or passenger's door pocket.
• Armrest Box: Store it in the central armrest compartment.
• Glove Compartment: Ensure it is not obstructed and can be quickly retrieved.

4.1. Using the Window Breaker

1. Grip the safety hammer firmly.
2. Remove the protective cap from the pointed carbon steel end.
3. Press the pointed end firmly against one of the four corners of a side window. Side windows are designed to shatter into small, relatively harmless pieces when struck with sufficient force at these points.
4. Once the glass shatters, use the blunt end of the hammer or your foot to clear any remaining glass from the window frame before exiting.

4.2. Using the Seatbelt Cutter

1. Locate the seatbelt cutter at the base of the tool's handle. The blade is recessed for safety.
2. Hægt sikkerhedsselen ind i skærehullet.
3. Pull the tool firmly across the seatbelt to slice through it. The sharp blade will quickly cut the belt, allowing for immediate release.

5. Sikkerhedsforanstaltninger

• This tool is intended for emergency use only.
• Opbevares utilgængeligt for børn for at forhindre utilsigtet skade.
• Do not test the window breaker on windshields or rear windows, as these are typically laminated glass and will not shatter like side windows.
• Exercise caution when breaking glass; wear protective eyewear if available to prevent injury from glass fragments.
• The seatbelt cutter blade is sharp. Avoid direct contact with skin.

6. Vedligeholdelse

• Keep the tool clean and dry. Wipe with a damp klud om nødvendigt.
• Inspect the carbon steel points and seatbelt cutter blade periodically for any signs of damage or dullness.
• Ensure the protective cap for the pointed hammer is securely in place when not in use.
• Store in a location where it is protected from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

7. Fejlfinding

• Window does not break: If the window does not shatter on the first attempt, apply more force or try striking a different corner of the side window. Ensure you are striking a side window, not a windshield or rear window.
• Seatbelt does not cut: Ensure the seatbelt is fully seated within the cutter's blade slot. Apply firm, continuous pressure while pulling the tool across the belt.
