Wearing seat belts
Seat belts are the most effective means of
restraining the movement of vehicle occu-
pants in the event of an accident. This
reduces the risk of vehicle occupants coming
into contact with the vehicle interior. G

which has not been engaged in the seat belt
buckle correctly, cannot perform its inten-
ded protective function. Under certain cir-
cumstances this could cause severe or
even fatal injuries.

pregnant women –weartheir seat belt cor-
rectly at all times.
R The seat belt must pass closely over your
body and must not be twisted. You
shouldt herefore avoid wearing bulky
clothing (e.g. awinter coat). The shoulder
belt section must be routed across the
middleofy ours houlder –onnoa ccount
across yourn eck or under youra rm–and
pulled tight against youru pperbody.T he
lap belt must always pass across yourl ap
