ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
70) 71)
Five different adjustments in height are
possible.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, buttons A
fig. 67 (located on both sides of handle
B) must be pressed simultaneously
(towards each other), and the handle
must be slid downwards.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, handle B
must be slid (without pressing
anything).Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.WARNING
68)Never press button C when travelling.
69)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.
70)Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.71)After the height adjustment, always
check that the grip is locked in one of the
preset positions. To do this, with button A
released, exert further pressure
downwards to allow the locking device to
click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.
