9 Warning
When re-installing seats always
ensure that the row with the folding
access seat B is positioned
correctly in front of the fixed seat
row A.
If the seats are incorrectly
positioned, access for passengers
is seriously impeded.
Seat belts
The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle holding the occupants in
the sitting position. Therefore, the risk
of injury is considerably reduced.
9 Warning
Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger
their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are only designed for use
by one person at a time. Child
