Seat belts
seaT BeLTs (1/3)
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.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belts to ensure
optimum protection.adjusting your driving
position
– 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.
– adjust the position of your head- rest. For the maximum safety, your
head must be as close as possible to
the headrest.
The top of your head should be in
line with the top of 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 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The seat belt should be worn so that
it is as close as possible to your body,
i.e.: avoid wearing heavy clothing or
keeping bulky objects under the belts,
etc.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.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
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.
