Seat belts
SEAT BELTS (1/4)
Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par-
ticular country you are in.
I n c o r r e c t l y a d j u s t e d o r
twisted seat belts may
cause injuries in the event
of an accident.
The seatbelt is for the use of one
person only, whether adult or child.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, adjust your driving
position and then have each occu-
pant adjust their seat belt to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving position
(depending on the vehicle)
–

S
it well back in your seat (having
removed your coat or jacket etc.).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
–

a
djust the distance between the
seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
–

a
djust the position of your head-
rest. For the maximum safety, your
head must be as close as possible to
the headrest;
–

adjust
the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view;
–

adjust
the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder strap
1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap belt
2

must be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis. The seat
belt must be worn as close to the body
as possible. i.e.: avoid wearing heavy
clothing or keeping bulky objects under
the belts, etc.

Make sure that the rear bench seat
is locked in position correctly so that
the rear seat belts will operate effi-
ciently. Refer to the information on
the “Rear bench seat: functions” in
Section 3.

To fasten
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 4
locks into
catch

6
(check that it is locked by pulling
on buckle

). If it jams, allow it to return
before attempting to unwind it again. If
your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.
Adjusting the front seat belt
height
(depending on the vehicle)
Move button

justed it.

proximately 2 minutes until the driver’s

Booster cushions
From 15 kg or 4 years, the child can
travel using a booster seat, which will
enable the seat belt to be adapted
to suit his/her size and shape. The
booster seat cushion must be fitted with
guides to position the seat belt on the
child’s thighs rather than the stomach.
It is recommended that you use a seat-
back fitted with a belt strap guide which
can be adjusted in terms of height to
position the seat belt in the centre of
the shoulder. It should never rest on the
neck or over the arm. Choose a bucket
type seat for better side protection.
Forward-facing child seats
The child’s head and abdomen need to
be protected as a priority. A forward-fac-
ing child seat which is firmly attached to
the vehicle will reduce the risk of impact
to the head. Transport your child in a
forward-facing seat with a safety har-
ness or guard depending on the child’s
size. Choose a bucket type seat for
better side protection.
Rear-facing child seats
A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier
than that of an adult and its neck is very
fragile. Transport the child in this po-
sition for as long as possible (until the
age of 2 at the very least). It supports
the head and neck. Choose a bucket
type seat for better side protection and
replace it as soon as the child’s head
extends past the seat shell.
