SEAT BELTS
SEAT BELTS:
Seat-belt is a safety device designed
to secure the occupant of the vehicle.
Use of seat-belt reduces the chance
of injury and severity of injury in case
of an accident.
TATA MOTORS
strongly recommends that all the
occupants should always wear seat-
belts while travelling, irrespective of
journey duration.
Your vehicle is equipped with seat
belts, for front and rear seats as a part
of occupant restraint system.
WARNING
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is
seated and using a seat belt
properly.
In normal driving, the belt lets you
move freely in your seat. In case of an
accident or sudden braking, inertia reel
automatically tightens the belt to help
restrain your body.
This vehicle has three point inertia reel
type for front and rear seat belts in the
out board positions and a lap belt for
middle passenger on rear seat. The lap
belt has a manually adjusted belt that
fits across the hip bone. Make sure
that your seat is adjusted to a good
driving position and the back of the
seat is upright.
Importance of Wearing Seat Belt :
1. It will help to keep you in the proper
position when the air bag inflates.
2. Reduces the risk of harm in rollover,
side or rear impact collisions
3. Reduces the risk of harm in
frontal/angular collisions that are
not enough to activate the air bag.
4. Reduces the risk of being thrown
inside the vehicle in case of a
collision.
NOTE
Do not bleach or dye seat belts as
this may severely weaken them. In
a crash they may not be able to
provide adequate protection. Clean-
ing should be carried out using mild
soap and water only.
WARNING
Make sure that the seat belts are
not twisted which can cause injury
in a collision as the full width of the
belt isn’t available to absorb the
impact. This puts more force on the
bones beneath the belt, which could
cause serious injury.
The maximum protection which seat
belts can offer is only achieved if you
are correctly seated. The seat back
should not be tilted too far back.
