The protective function of seat
belts Fig. 7
Drivers with properly worn seat belts will
not be thr own f
orwar

d in the event of sudden
braking. Properly worn seat belts hold the occupants
in the pr
oper position. They al so help pr
ev

ent
uncontrolled movements that may result in
serious injury and reduce the risk of being
thrown out of the vehicle in case of an acci-
dent.
Vehicle occupants wearing their seat belts
correctly benefit greatly from the ability of
the belts to absorb kinetic energy. In addition,
the front part of your vehicle and other pas-
sive safety features (such as the airbag sys- tem) are designed to absorb the kinetic ener-
gy released in a collision. Taken t

ogether, all
these features reduce the releasing kinetic
energy and consequently, the risk of injury.
This is why it is so important to fasten seat
belts before every trip, even when "just driving
around the corner".
Ensure that your passengers wear their seat
belts as well. Accident statistics have shown
that wearing seat belts is an effective means
of substantially reducing the risk of injury and
improving the chances of survival when in-
volved in a serious accident. Furthermore,
properly worn seat belts improve the protec-
tion provided by airbags in the event of an
accident. For this reason, wearing a seat belt
is required by law in most countries.
Although your vehicle is equipped with air-
bags, the seat belts must be fastened and
worn. The front airbags, for example, are only
triggered in some cases of head-on collision.
The front airbags will not be triggered during
minor frontal or side collisions, rear-end colli-
sions, overturns or accidents in which the air-
bag trigger threshold value in the control unit
is not exceeded.

Driving
The control lamps light up together when the
ignition is s wit
ched on and shoul d t
urn off af
-
ter approximately 2 seconds. This is the time
taken for the function check.
Brake assist systems Electronic Stability Control (ESC)*
The ESC helps to improv
e saf

ety. It reduces
the tendency to skid and improves the stabili-
ty and roadholding of the vehicle. The ESC
detects critical handling situations, such as
vehicle understeer or oversteer, or wheelspin
on the driving wheels. It stabilises the vehicle
by braking individual wheels or by reducing
the engine torque. The warning lamp will
flash on the instrument panel when the ESC is
intervening !.
The ESC includes the anti-lock brake system
(ABS), the hydraulic brake assist (HBA), the
traction control system (ASR), electronic dif-
ferential lock (EDS), electronic torque control
(XDS).
ESC also helps stabilise the vehicle by
changing the torque.
The ASR can be deactivated when wheel spin
is desirable

Checking and refilling levels
Warning lamp 
It lights up
Alternator fault. The control lamp lights up when the ignition is
switched on. It should go out when the engine
has st art
ed running.
If the control lamp  lights up while driving, the alternator is no longer charging the bat-
tery. You should immediately drive to the
nearest specialised workshop.
You should avoid using electrical equipment
that is not absolutely necessary because this
will drain the battery.
Checking the battery electrolyte
level The electrolyte level should be checked reg-
ul
arly in high-mil
eage vehicl
es, in hot coun-
tries and in ol

der batteries.
