Safety
Installation
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the
hollow of the shoulder.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
– be tightened as close to the body as
possible.
– be pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, checking that it is not twisted.
– must only be used to secure one person.
– must not show signs of tearing or fraying.
– must not be changed or modified, in order
to avoid affecting its performance.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or shorter than one
and a half metres.
Make sure that the seat belt is correctly
positioned and tightened.
Never use the same seat belt to secure more
than one child.
Never carry a child on your lap.
For more information on Child seats , refer to
the corresponding section.
Maintenance
Have the seat belts checked regularly by
a dealer or qualified workshop, particularly if
the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or
a textile cleaning product, sold by dealers or
qualified workshops.
Child seats
The regulations on carrying children are
specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
– In accordance with European regulations,
all children under the age of 12 or less than
1.5 metres tall must travel in approved child
seats appropriate for their weight , on seats
fitted with a seat belt.
– Children weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rearward facing" position .
Advice
An incorrectly installed child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's safety in
the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harness keeping the slack relative
to the child's body to a minimum, even for
short journeys.
Check that the seat belt is properly tightened
over the child seat and that it holds the child
seat firmly against the vehicle seat.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure that
the support leg is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
Use a booster seat with a backrest, equipped
with a belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety measure, do not leave:
– A child alone and unsupervised inside
the vehicle.
– A child or an animal in a vehicle exposed to
the sun with the windows closed.
– The keys inside the vehicle.
