General warnings for using the
seat belts
The driver and any
passengers are obliged by
law to respect and obey
the provisions of local legislation
regarding the compulsory use of seat
belts.
To help provide maximum
protection, you are advised
to keep the seatback in the
most upright position possible and
the seat belt close to your chest and
pelvis. If the seat belt is loose, in the
event of an accident you could move
too far forward and could be injured.
Travelling with the seatback too far
reclined could also be dangerous:
even if the seat belts are fastened,
they may not work correctly. In
fact, the belt itself may not be
close enough to your body and, if
it is in front of you, it could cause
neck wounds or other injuries in an
accident. Additionally, in an accident,
the lower section of the belt could
press against the upper part of your
stomach rather than the pelvic area,
causing serious internal injuries.
Do not use child seats or child
booster cushions/backrests
in the front passenger seat.
Occupants in the front passenger seat
must never sit on the edge of the seat,
leaning toward the instrument panel
or otherwise sit out of position.
The occupants’ back must be as
upright as comfort allows, and must
rest against the seatback with the seat
belt properly fastened. Feet must be
on the floor (i.e. not on the dashboard,
seat or out of the window).
Always fasten the seat belts.
Travelling without the seat
belts fastened significantly
increases the risk of serious injury in
the event of a collision, even with the
airbags. In the event of a collision,
the seat belts help reduce the
possibility of the vehicle’s occupants
being thrown against the structures
of the passenger compartment or
out of the vehicle. The airbags are
designed to work together with the
seat belts, not to substitute them.
The front airbags only deploy in the
event of certain head-on collisions of
sufficient intensity. They will not be
activated if the vehicle rolls over, or
in the event of rear bumps or minor
frontal collisions, or non-frontal
collisions.
