over the hip and injure the midriff in the event of
a head-on collision.
The seat belt must not pass across the neck. It
should not be pulled across sharp edges or
routed or fastened over hard or fragile objects.◀
Impairment of the restraining effect
Avoid wearing bulky clothing and regularly
pull the seat belt in the upper-body area taut,
otherwise its restraining effect could be im‐
paired.◀
Warning
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the
bony structure of the body and should be worn
low across the front of the pelvis, or the pelvis,
chest and shoulders, as applicable. Wearing the
lap section of the belt across the abdominal area
must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as pos‐
sible, consistent with comfort, to provide the
protection for which they have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection
afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid contamination of
the webbing by polishes, oils and chemicals and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be
carried out using mild soap and water. The belt
should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged. Seat belts should
not be worn with straps twisted. Each seat belt
assembly must only be used by one occupant;
it is forbidden to put a belt around a child being
carried on the occupant’s lap.
It is essential to replace the entire assembly after
it has been worn in a severe impact even if dam‐
age to the assembly is not obvious.◀
Warning
No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either prevent the
seat belt adjusting devices from operating to re‐
move slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove slack.◀
Adjustment for automatic retracting
seat belts
▷ Draw the buckle tongue attached to the seat
belt across the body and press it into the
buckle catch until a ‘click’ is heard.
▷ Adjustment of the belt length is very impor‐
tant. To adjust the lap belt and check
whether the buckle has locked correctly, pull
upwards on the shoulder strap until the lap
belt fits tightly.
▷ The length of the diagonal shoulder strap
adjusts itself automatically to allow freedom
of movement.
▷ To release the seat belt, press the button on
the buckle catch unit.
Fastening the seat belt
The seat belt buckle must be heard to engage.
Unfastening the seat belt
1. Hold onto the belt.
2. Press the red button on the belt buckle.
3. Guide the belt back up to the reel.
Seat belt reminder for driver's and front
