SEAT BELTS
Good practice
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
strapped in securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs, clips,
safety pins, etc.) which permit a clearance
with the seat belt straps.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
rolled up correctly and that the buckle is
ready to accommodate the tongue.
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of any impact, the pretensioning device may
be triggered before and independently of
inflation of the air bags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Triggering of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
Fastening
Pull the strap, then insert the tongue into the
buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap. Driver ’s seat belt not fastened warning
