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
Risk of injury
As eat belt which is not worn correctly, or
which has not been engaged in the seat belt
buckle correctly, cannot perform its intended
protective function. Under certain circum-
stances, this could result in severe or even
fatal injuries.
Make sure that all occupants –inparticular,
pregnant women –wear their seat belt cor-
rectly at all times.
R The seat belt must fit snugly on your body
and must not be twisted. Therefore, you
should avoid wearing bulky clothing (e.g. a
winter coat). The shoulder belt section
must be routed across the centre of your
shoulder –onnoaccount across your neck
or under your arm –and pulled tight against
your upper body. The lap belt must always
pass across your lap as low down as possi-
ble, i.e. over your hip joints–n ot across
your abdomen. If necessary, push down the
belt strap slightly and then retighten it in
the roll-up direction.
R Do not route the belt strap across sharp
edges or fragile objects, especially if these
are located on or in your clothing, e.g. spec-
tacles, pens, keys, etc. The seat belt strap
could be damaged and tear in an accident, 76
