Reduced seat belt protection
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
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.
When braking or in the event of an accident,
you could slide underneath the seat belt and
sustain abdominal or neck injuries, for exam‐
ple.
#
Adjust the seat properly before begin‐
ning your journey.
#
Always ensure that the seat backrest is
in an almost vertical position and that
the shoulder section of your seat belt is
routed across the center of your shoul‐
der.
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death when
additional restraint systems are not used
for persons with a smaller build
Persons under 5 ft (1.50 m) tall cannot wear
the seat belt correctly without a suitable
additional restraint system.
If the seat belt is not worn correctly, it can‐
not perform its intended protective function.
In addition, an incorrectly fastened seat belt
can also cause injuries, for example, in the
event of an accident or when braking or
changing direction suddenly.
#
Always secure persons under 5 ft
(1.50 m) tall in a suitable restraint sys‐
tem.
&
WARNING Danger of injury or death due
to blocked seat belt anchorages
The restraint effect of the seat belt is
impaired if objects between the front seat
and the door are blocking the movable seat
belt anchorage on the front seat.
The seat belt may not then provide the
proper protection.
#
Before starting a journey, make sure
that there are no objects between the
front seat and the door.
&

damaged or modified seat belts

following situations:

If the seat belts are damaged, modified,
extremely dirty, bleached or dyed
