SEAT BELTS
Always wear your seat belt when
travelling in your car. You must also
comply with the local legislation in
the particular country you are in.
Before driving off:
- First ensure that your driving
position is correct.
- Then adjust your seat belt to
provide maximum protection.
Incorrectly adjusted seat
belts may cause injuries
in the event of an
accident.
Even pregnant women should
wear a seat belt. In this case,
ensure that the pressure of the
lap belt on the abdomen is not
excessive.Adjusting your driving position
• Sit with your back firmly against
the seatback.This is essential to
ensure that your lumbar vertebrae
are in the correct position.
•Adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals.Yo u r s e a t
should be as far back as possible
for you to be able to press in the
clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your
arms are slightly bent when you
hold the steering wheel.
•Adjust the position of your head
restraint.For maximum safety

•Adjusttheheightoftheseat.This
adjustment allows you to select

wheel.
