Driver
If the driver is the only occupant and their seat belt
is not fastened, when 20 km/h is exceeded or when
travelling at a speed between 10 and 20 km/h for
longer than 5 seconds, an acoustic signal cycle will be
started for the front seats (continuous acoustic
signal for 6 seconds followed by a 90 second beep).
The warning light will flash. Once the cycle is
complete, the warning lights stay on with a fixed light
until the car is turned off or the seat belt fastened.
If the seat belt is unfastened again while travelling,
the acoustic reminder resumes as described
previously and icon A
fig. 92 switches on.
Passenger
A similar situation applies to the front passenger. The
indication is also interrupted when the passenger
leaves the car.
If both front seat belts are unfastened while the car
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 no. 2, no. 3 and no. 4)
For the rear seats, the reminder cycle is only
activated when any seat belt is unfastened together
with an acoustic signal (three beeps) (icon A
fig. 92). If the condition of any (front or rear) seat
belt changes, also the condition of the other
(front/rear) seat belts is reported.
The visual indication (icon A
fig. 92) will start and
stop independently for each warning light if several
seat belts are unfastened. The visual signal will
change condition (icon B
fig. 92) after the
corresponding seat has been fastened again.
IMPORTANT When the ignition key is turned to
MAR, if all the front and rear belts are already
fastened the warning lights will remain in position B
fig. 92 for 30 seconds.
IMPORTANT When the ignition key is turned to
MAR, the belts fastened icons will remain in position
B
fig. 92, whilst the belts unfastened icons will
be displayed as in position A
of fig. 92. If the last
belt is also fastened, the icons will remain in position
B
fig. 92 for 30 seconds then they will switch off.
PRETENSIONERSThe car 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 occupants' bodies before the
restraining action begins. It is evident that
the pretensioners have operated when the belt
withdraws towards the reel. This car is also equipped
with a second pretensioner (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 pretensioning
device, 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 mud, it must be replaced.
