Seat belts

FRONT AND REAR SIDE SEAT
BELTS
The front seats and the rear side seats
of row 2 are fi tted with pre-tensioners
and force limiters.
The lap strap must be positioned as
low as possible on the pelvis. The
chest strap must pass over the hollow
of the shoulder.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap.
The force-limiting device reduces the
pressure of the seat belt against the
chest of the occupant, so increasing
his protection.
A bag placed on the front
passenger seat or a pet sitting on
this seat may trigger the lighting of
this warning light.
SEAT BELTS
Front seat belt warning light
If the driver and/or front
passenger has/have not
fastened his/their seat belt,
this warning light comes on.
Then, at a speed in excess of
approximately 15 mph (25 km/h), it
fl ashes accompanied by an audible
signal of increasing volume (for
approximately 90 seconds) and a
message on the display.
Row 2 rear side seat belts
For your comfort, if you are not using
the seat belt, slide the seat belt loop to
the upper stop to prevent the tongue
from vibrating.
To adjust the height
- To lower the attachment point,
squeeze control and slide it
downwards
- To raise the attachment point, slide
control upwards.
To fasten
- Pull the strap, then insert the
buckle into the stalk.
- Check that the seat belt is secured
correctly by pulling the strap.
Inertia reel seat belts
These are fi tted with a device which
locks the seat belt automatically in
the event of an impact or emergency
braking.
Safety in the event of a frontal impact
has been improved by the introduction
of pre-tensioning and force-limiting
seat belts. Depending on the
seriousness of the impact, the pre-
tensioning system instantly tightens the
seat belts fi rmly against the body of the
occupant.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
Row 3 rear side seat belts
The row 3 rear side seats are fi tted
with two seat belts which are both
three-point inertia reel belts with force
limiter.
