On removal of the belt, if it jams, let it
rewind for a short stretch, then pull it
out again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
3fig. 87 and guide the seat belt with
your hand while it is rewinding, to
prevent it from twisting.

The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the reel
mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled
sharply or in the event of sudden
braking, collisions and high-speed
bends.
Once seated, put on the rear seat belts
as shown in fig. 88.
ADJUSTING THE FRONT
SEAT BELT HEIGHT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
74) 75)
Four different adjustments in height are
possible.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, button 1
fig. 89 must be pressed, and the handle
must be slid downwards.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, the handle
must be slid (without pressing
anything).
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of a crash.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
72) Never press button 3 when travelling.
73) 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.
74) Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.
