SAFETY
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS fig. 1
Wear the belt keeping the chest straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue A and insert it in-
to the buckle B, until the locking click is heard. If the
seat belt jams during removal, let it rewind for a short
stretch, then pull it out again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button C. Guide the seat
belt with your hand while it is rewinding, to prevent it
from twisting. Through the reel, the belt automatically
adapts to the body of the passenger wearing it, allowing
freedom of movement.
The reel may lock when the car is parked on a steep slope:
this is perfectly normal. Furthermore, the reel mechanism
locks the belt if it is pulled and in the event of sudden brak-
ing, collisions and on high speed bends. The rear seat is
fitted with inertial seat belts with three anchor points and
a reel.
Never press button C when travelling.
Remember that in the event of a violent col-
lision, rear seat passengers not wearing seat
belts risk both their own safety and represent
a serious danger for the front seat passengers.
