The belt can be blocked if the vehicle is standing
at an angle or the belt is pulled out using a jerking
movement.
The belt cannot be pulled out while accelerating
and slowing down, when cornering and when
driving uphill.

buckle on the inboard side of the seat until
it locks securely with an audible click.

and that they are not rubbing on sharp edges.

Pregnant women should position the belt as
low as possible across the pelvis, and ensure
that it is not pressing against the abdomen.
