SEAT BELTS
Always wear your seat belt when
travelling in your car. You must also
comply with the local legislation in
the particular country you are in.
Before driving off:
- First ensure that your driving
position is correct.
- Then, to provide maximum
safety, adjust your seat belt
correctly.
Incorrectly adjusted seat
belts may cause injuries
in the event of an
accident.
Even pregnant women should
wear a seat belt. In this case,
ensure that the pressure of the
lap belt on the abdomen is not
excessive.Adjusting your driving position
• Sit with your back firmly against
the seatback.
This is essential to ensure your
lumbar vertebrae are in the
correct position.
•Adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals.
Your seat should be as far back as
possible to allow you to press the
clutch pedal fully down. The
seatback should be adjusted so
that your arms remain slightly
bent.
•Adjust the position of the head
restraint.
For maximum safety, your head
should be as close as possible to
the head restraint.
•Adjust the height of the seat.
This adjustment allows you to
select the seat position which
offers you the best possible
vision.
•Adjust the position of the steering
wheel
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
The shoulder strap1should be as
close to the base of the neck as
possible but not on it.
The lap strap2should be held
firmly over the thighs and against
the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close to the body as possible, i.e.
avoid wearing heavy clothing or
having bulky objects under the
belts.
