tually increase the risk of injury during
an accident. The dangers of assuming an
incorrect sitting position
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 34.
If the seat belts are not worn or are worn in-
correctly, the risk of se
vere or fatal injuries
increases. Seat belts can only provide optimal
protection if the seat belt routing is correct.
Assuming an incorrect sitting position con-
siderably impairs the level of protection pro-
vided by a seat belt. This could lead to severe
or even fatal injuries. The risk of severe or fa-
tal injuries is especially increased when a de-
ploying airbag strikes a vehicle occupant who
has assumed an incorrect sitting position.
The driver is responsible for all occupants
transported in the vehicle, especially children.
The following list contains examples of sit-
ting positions that can be dangerous for all
vehicle occupants.
Whenever the vehicle is in motion:

shop to find out about possible special modi-
fications. The seat belts and airbags can only
pro
vide a maximum level of protection if
a correct sitting position is assumed. Volks-
wagen recommends using a Volkswagen
dealership for this purpose.
Volkswagen recommends the following seat-
ing position for your own safety and to re-
duce the level of injury in the event of a sud-
den braking manoeuvre or an accident:
The following applies to all vehicle occu-
pants:

x
Bef ore every trip, each vehicle occupant
must adopt the correct sitting position,
correctly fasten the seat belt belonging
to their seat and keep it fastened prop-
erly throughout the trip. This applies to
all vehicle occupants and also in urban
traffic.
x While the vehicle is in motion, secure all
children travelling in the vehicle in a re-
straint system suitable for their weight
and height. They must also wear cor-
rectly fastened seat belts
