Seats & Restraints
Seat Belts
It is important that all seat belts are worn
correctly. Always check that all passengers
are wearing seat belts.
DO NOT carry
passengers that are unable to wear correctly
positioned seat belts.
Wearing seat belts
incorrectly may cause serious injury or even
death in the event of a collision.
Airbags can not replace seat belts. Airbags
can
only provide extra support when
triggered, and not all traffic accidents
will trigger airbags. Whether airbags are
triggered or not, seat belts can reduce the
risks of serious injury or death in accidents.
Therefore, seat belts must be worn correctly.
NEVER unfasten a seat belt whilst driving.
Serious injury or death may occur in the case
of an accident or emergency braking.
NEVER fasten the driver seat belt or use
a buckle replacement when the driver
seat is vacant or when exiting the vehicle.
This could cause the engine to restart
automatically.
This vehicle is equipped with seat belt warning
lamp to remind you to fasten your seat belt.
During driving, seat belts must be fastened, this is because:
• You can never predict if you will be involved in a collision
accident and how serious it may be.
• In many cases of collision accidents, passengers with
seat belts correctly fastened are well-protected, while
passengers with seat belts not fastened suffer from
serious injury or even death.
Therefore, all passengers must wear seat belts correctly,
even during short-distance journeys.
