SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The belt should be worn keeping the
torso straight and rested against the
backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 73 and insert it into the
buckle B fig. 73, until it clicks into
place.
On removal, if the seat belt jams, let it
rewind for a short stretch, then pull
it out again without jerking.
Press button C fig. 73 to release the
belt.
Guide the belt while it is rewinding to
prevent it from twisting. Through the
retractor, the belt automatically adapts
to the body of the passenger wearing it,
allowing freedom of movement.
The retractor may lock when the car is
parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if it
is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions or
high-speed bends.
59) 60)
The rear seat is fitted with inertia seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor.
WARNING
59) Do not press button C when
travelling.
60) 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.
