SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The belt should be worn keeping the
torso straight and rested against the
backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue
1 fig. 41 and insert it into the buckle 3,
until it clicks into place.
On removal of the belt, if it jams, let it
rewind for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
2 and guide the seat belt with your hand
while it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
53)
The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal.Furthermore, the reel mechanism locks
the belt if it is pulled sharply or in the
event of sudden braking, collisions and
high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertia seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor.
Wear the rear seat belts as illustrated in
fig. 42.
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT The backrest
is correctly secured when the red band 1
fig. 43 on the backrest folding handles
2 disappears. This red band indicates
that the backrest is not secured.IMPORTANT When putting the rear seats
back to their normal position, make sure
the seat belts are positioned so they are
ready to use.
55)
WARNING
53)Never press button 2 when travelling.
54)Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
55)Make sure that the backrest is correctly
secured on both sides (red bands not visible)
to prevent it from moving forward in the
event of sharp braking, causing injuries to
occupants.41A0K0659C42A0K0921C

SBR SYSTEM (Seat Belt
Reminder)
This system comprises an acoustic
warning which, in conjunction with the
warning lights
flashing on the
instrument panel, warns the front seat
passengers if their seat belt has not been
fastened.
On some versions there is also a panel
fig. 44 (provided as an alternative to the
warning light on the instrument panel)
located above the rear-view mirror, which
warns the front and back seat
passengers via acoustic and visual
signals if their seat belts have not been
fastened.
Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership to
deactivate this acoustic warning
permanently.The acoustic warning can be reactivated
at any time through the Setup Menu (see
"Menu options" paragraph in the
“Knowing the instrument panel” chapter).
The warning lights fig. 44 may be red or
green and operate as follows:
1 = front left seat (driver status for
left-hand drive versions)
2 = rear left seat (passenger);
3 = rear centre seat (passenger)
4 = rear right seat (passenger);
5 = front right seat (passenger status
for left-hand drive versions).
FRONT SEATS (warning light 1 = driver
and 5 = passenger)
Driver
If the driver is the only occupant and the
seat belt is not fastened, when 20 km/h
is exceeded or when travelling at a speed
from 10 to 20 km/h for longer than
5 seconds, a buzzer sequence will be
started (front seats) consisting of a tone
for 6 seconds followed by a 90 second
beep.The warning light will blink.
The warning lights will stay on constantly
at the end of the cycle until the engine is
stopped. The acoustic signal will be
interrupted immediately when the
driver’s seat belt is fastened and the
warning light will turn green.The reminder cycle (acoustic and visual)
will be repeated as described above and
the red warning light will flash if the seat
belt is unfastened again while travelling.
Passenger
A similar solution applies for the front
passenger, with the difference that the
warning light turns green and the signal is
interrupted also when the passenger
leaves the car.
It both front seat belts are unfastened
while the vehicle is travelling a few
seconds apart, the acoustic indication
will refer to the most recent event and
the two warning lights will proceed with
the visual indication independently.
REAR SEATS (warning light 2, 3 and 4)
The reminder cycle is run only when any
seat belt is unfastened (red blinking).
In this condition, the warning light for the
seat belt which has been unfastened will
start flashing red for approximately
30 seconds. An acoustic signal is also
emitted.
The visual indication (blinking red) will
start and end independently for each
warning light if several seat belts are
unfastened. The warning light will
become green when the relevant seat
belt is fastened again.

Page 68 of 212
After about 30 seconds from the last
indication, the warning lights for rear
seats will switch off, irrespective of the
belt conditions (red or green).
IMPORTANT NOTES
All warning lights will remain off if all the
seat belts (front and rear) are already
fastened when the key it turned to MAR.
All the warning lights will come on when
at least one belt changes from fastened
to unfastened status or vice versa.PRE-TENSIONERS
56) 57)
The vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back the
seat belts by several centimetres in the
event of a strong frontal impact. This
guarantees the perfect adherence of the
seat belts to the occupant's bodies
before the retention action begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
operated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
This car is also equipped with a second
pretensioner (fitted in the kick plate
area). Its activation is signalled by the
shortening of the metal cable.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve any fire hazard.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt tight
to the chest and pelvis.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any changes
to its original conditions will invalidate its
efficiency. If, due to unusual natural
events (floods, sea storms, etc.), the
device has been affected by water and/or
mud, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership
to have it replaced.
LOAD LIMITERS
To increase passenger safety, the front
seat belt reels contain a load limiter
which allows the force acting on the chest
and shoulders to be modulated during the
belt restraining action in the event of a
frontal impact.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
THE SEAT BELTS
Respect and ensure that all the other
occupants of the vehicle comply with the
local laws in force regarding the use of
seat belts. Always fasten the seat belts
before starting off.
58) 59)
Seat belts must also be worn by pregnant
women: the risk of injury in the event of
an accident is reduced for them and the
unborn child if they are wearing a seat
belt.
Pregnant women must position the lower
part of the belt very low down so that it
passes over the pelvis and under the
abdomen fig. 45.
66
SAFETY
Page 69 of 212
The belt must not be twisted. The upper
part must pass over the shoulder and
cross the chest diagonally. The lower part
must adhere to the pelvis fig. 46, not to
the abdomen of the occupant. Never use
devices (clips, clamps, etc.) that hold the
seat belt away from your body.Each seat belt must be used by only one
person. Never travel with a child sitting
on a passenger’s lap using a single belt to
protect them both fig. 47. In general, do
not place any objects between the person
and the belt.
SEAT BELTS MAINTENANCEAlways use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make sure
that it is free to run without obstructions;
replace the belt after an accident of a
certain severity even if it does not appear
to be damaged. Always replace the belt if
the pretensioners were deployed;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when there is
wear or cuts.
WARNING
56)The pretensioner may be used only once.
After its activation, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership to have it replaced.
57)Removing or tampering with seat belt
and pretensioner components is strictly
prohibited. Any intervention on these
components must be performed by qualified
and authorised technicians. Always contact
a dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
58)For maximum safety, keep the backrest
upright, lean back into it and make sure the
seat belt fits closely across your chest and
pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts for both
the front and rear seats! Travelling without
wearing seat belts will increase the risk of
serious injury and even death in the event of
an accident.
59)If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In fact,
even if the belt has no visible defects, it may
have lost its resilience.
IMPORTANT
20)Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioner may cause damage
or make it deploy. Contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership should intervention be necessary
on these components.
