For versions/markets where
provided, when the backrest is
brought back again, the seat will
return to its original position
(mechanical memory).
Headrests must be
adjusted so that the
head, rather than the neck,
rests on them. Only in this
position do they exert their
protective action in the event
of a collision.

FRONT SEAT BELT HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT
Always adjust the height of the seat
belt to the body of the passenger.
This precaution may considerably
reduce the risk of injury in the event
of a collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained
when the belt passes approximately
half way between the shoulder and
the neck.
According to the version, there may
be as many as 5 height adjustment
positions fig. 22:
To raise: lift the ring B to the
desired position.
The height of the seat
belts must be adjusted
with the vehicle stationary.
WARNING
SEAT BELTS
HOW TO USE THE
SEAT BELTS fig. 21
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
Pull the belt lightly. If the seat belt
jams, let it rewind for a short
stretch, then pull it out again
without jerking.
fig. 21
F0X0022m
To unfasten the seat belt, press
button C. Guide the seat belt while
it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting. Through the reel, the belt
automatically adapts to the body of
the passenger wearing it, allowing
freedom of movement.
The reel may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
normal.
Furthermore, the reel mechanism
locks the belt if it is pulled sharply or
in the event of sudden braking,
collisions and high-speed bends.
For maximum
protection, keep the
backrest upright, lean back
into it and make sure that the
seat belt fits closely across the
chest and pelvis.
