The protective function of seat
belts Fig. 7
Drivers with properly worn seat belts will
not be thr own f
orwar

d in the event of sudden
braking. Properly worn seat belts hold the occupants
in the pr
oper position. They al so help pr
ev

ent
uncontrolled movements that may result in
serious injury and reduce the risk of being
thrown out of the vehicle in case of an acci-
dent.
Vehicle occupants wearing their seat belts
correctly benefit greatly from the ability of
the belts to absorb kinetic energy. In addition,
the front part of your vehicle and other pas-
sive safety features (such as the airbag sys- tem) are designed to absorb the kinetic ener-
gy released in a collision. Taken t

ogether, all
these features reduce the releasing kinetic
energy and consequently, the risk of injury.
This is why it is so important to fasten seat
belts before every trip, even when "just driving
around the corner".
Ensure that your passengers wear their seat
belts as well. Accident statistics have shown
that wearing seat belts is an effective means
of substantially reducing the risk of injury and
improving the chances of survival when in-
volved in a serious accident. Furthermore,
properly worn seat belts improve the protec-
tion provided by airbags in the event of an
accident. For this reason, wearing a seat belt
is required by law in most countries.
Although your vehicle is equipped with air-
bags, the seat belts must be fastened and
worn. The front airbags, for example, are only
triggered in some cases of head-on collision.
The front airbags will not be triggered during
minor frontal or side collisions, rear-end colli-
sions, overturns or accidents in which the air-
bag trigger threshold value in the control unit
is not exceeded.

Driving data Fig. 235
Driving data. The on-board computer has 3 memories.
They can be used t
o displ
ay: dist ance
, time
,
average speed, average consumption and
range.
1. Since start
Indication and storage of distance travelled
and consumption values between the ignition
being turned on and it being turned off.
2. Since refuelling
Display and storage of the values for the jour-
ney and the consumption. By refuelling, the
memory will be erased automatically.
3. Long-term
The memory records the values for a specific
number of partial trips, up to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes or 99 hours and 59 mi-
nutes, or 1999.9 km (mi) or 9999 km (mi), de-
pending on the model of instrument panel.
When one of these values is reached (de-
pending on the version of the instrument pan-
el), the memory is aut

omatically deleted and
starts counting again from 0.
