Important safet ynotes Seat belts are the most effective means of
restrainin gthe movemen tofvehicle occu-
pant sint he even tofanaccide nt.T his reduce

Risk of injury
As eat belt which is not worn cor rectly, or
which has not bee nengaged in the sea tbelt
buckle cor rectly, cannot perform its intended
prote ctive function .Under certain circum-
stances, this could cause severe or even fatal
injuries in the event of an accident.
Make sure that all occupants –inparticular,
pregnan twome n–w ear their seat belt cor-
rectly at all times.
R The seat belt must fit snugly on your body
and must no tbetwisted. Therefore, you
should avoid wearing bulky clothin g(e.g. a
winter coat) .The shoulder belt section
must be routed across the cen treofy our
shoulder –onnoaccount acros syour neck
or under your arm –and pulled tight against
your uppe rbody. The lap belt must always
pass across your lap as low down as possi-
ble, i.e. over your hip join ts–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
edge sorfragil eobjects, 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,
and you or other vehicl eoccupants could
be injured.
R Onl yone person should use each sea tbelt
at any one time. Children must never travel
sittin gont he lap of other occupan ts.It
would not be possible to restrain the child
in the event of asudden change in direc-
tion, braking or an accident .This could
result in sever eoreven fata linjuries to the
child and othe roccupants.
R Persons les sthan 1.50 mtall cannot wear
the seat belts correctly. For this reason,
secure persons less than 1.50 mtall in spe-
cially designed, suitable restraint systems. 40
