Limitations of the protection provided by the
seat belt
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
an incorrect seat position
The seat belt does not offer the intended
level of protection if you have not moved the
seat backrest to an almost vertical position.
You could slip beneath the seat belt and
injure yourself.
#
Adjust the seat properly before com‐
mencing your journey.
#
Always ensure that the seat backrest is
in an almost vertical position and that
the shoulder belt is routed across the
centre of your shoulder.
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
an extended seat belt extender while the
vehicle is in motion
If the seat belt does not sit correctly on the
body, it cannot perform its intended protec‐
tive function.
#
Always ensure that the seat belt
extender is retracted while the vehicle
is in motion.
If the seat belt extender does not retract auto‐
matically, it can be retracted manually. To do so,
press the seat belt extender back as far as it will
go before starting the vehicle. Pressing the seat
belt extender back into place requires force.
& WARNING Risk of injury or death when
additional restraint systems are not used
for persons with a smaller stature
Persons under 1.50 m tall cannot wear the
seat belt correctly without a suitable addi‐
tional restraint system.
#
Always secure persons under 1.50 m
tall in a suitable restraint system.
&
WARNING Danger of injury or death due
to blocked seat belt buckles
If seat belt buckles are blocked and cannot
be moved downwards, the function of the
seat belt tensioners is impaired.
