Using the belts Fitting seat belts
The seat belt must not be twisted and must

Adjust the height so that the belt lies across
the shoulder. It must not lie across the
throat or upper arm.
Pull the belt out of the reel, guide it across
the body (making certain it is not twisted)
and engage the latch plate in the buckle.
Tension the lap belt frequently whilst
driving by tugging the shoulder belt.

Loose or bulky clothing prevents the belt
from fitting snugly. Do not place objects
such as handbags or mobile phones
between the belt and your body.
9 Warning
On pregnant women in particular, the
lap belt must be positioned as low as
possible across the pelvis so as not to
put too much pressure on the abdomen.

fragile objects in the pockets of your
clothing.

Mobile telephones and radio
equipment
3
The Opel installation instructions and the
operating guidelines provided by the
telephone manufacturer must be followed
when fitting and op erating a mobile
telephone. Failure to do so could invalidate
the vehicle’s operating permit
(EU Directive 95/54/EG).
Recommended prerequisites for fault-free
operation:
z Professionally installed exterior antenna
to obtain the maximum range possible
z Maximum transmission power 10 Watt
z Installation of the telephone in a suitable
spot (see information 374)
Seek advice on predetermined installation
points for the external antenna or
equipment holder and ways of using
devices with a transmission power
exceeding 10 watts.
We recommend you contact your Opel
Service Partner who will have brackets and
various different accessory kits available
and can fit them correctly. Use of a handsfree
attachment without
external antenna with mobile telephone
standards GSM 900/1800/1900 and UMTS
is only permitted if the maximum
transmission power of the mobile
telephone is 2 watts for GSM 900 or 1 watt
for the other types.
For reasons of safety, we recommend that
you do not use the phone while driving.
Even use of a handsfree set can be a
distraction while driving. Be sure to observe
any country-specific regulations.
9 Warning
Mobile phones that do not comply with
the above-mentioned mobile phone
standard and radio equipment must
only be operated using an antenna that
is attached to the exterior of the vehicle.
Caution
Mobile phones and radio equipment
may cause malfunctions in the vehicle
electronics if they are operated in the
vehicle without the external antenna
unless the above-mentioned regulations
are complied with.
