SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS fig. 1
The belt should be worn keeping the chest
straight and rested against the seat back.
To fasten the seat belts, take hold the
tongue Aand insert it into the buckle B,
until hearing the locking click.
At removal, if it jams, let it rewind for a
short stretch, then pull it out again with-
out jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C. Guide the seat belt with your hand
while it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
The seat belt reel mechanism ensures that
the belt automatically adjusts to the wear-
er allowing him or her to move in com-
plete freedom.
When the vehicle is parked on a steep
slope the reel mechanism may block; this
is normal. The reel mechanism also pre-
vents the webbing coming out when it is
jerked or if the vehicle brakes sharply, is
in a collision or when cornering at high
speed.
The rear seat is fitted with inertial seat
belts with three anchor points and reel.
