BeltAlert® can be enabled or disabled
by your authorized dealer. LANCIA
does not recommend deactivating
BeltAlert®.
NOTE: Although BeltAlert® has
been deactivated, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will continue to
illuminate while the driver’s seat
belt remains unfastened.
SEAT BELTS AND
PREGNANT WOMEN
We recommend that pregnant women
use the seat belts throughout their
pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap
part of the belt across the thighs and
as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not
come across the abdomen. That way
the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS) — AIR BAGS
This vehicle has Advanced Front Air
Bags for both the driver and front
passenger as a supplement to the seat
belt restraint systems. The driver's
Advanced Front Air Bag is mounted
in the center of the steering wheel.
The passenger's Advanced Front Air
Bag is mounted in the instrument
panel, above the glove compartment.
The words SRS AIRBAG are em-
bossed on the air bag covers.
NOTE: The Driver and Front Pas-
senger Advanced Front Air Bags
are certified to the new regulations
for Advanced Air Bags.
The Advanced Front Air Bags have a
multistage inflator design. This allows
the air bag to have different rates of
inflation that are based on several fac-
tors, including the severity and type of
collision.
This vehicle may be equipped with a
driver and/or front passenger seat
belt buckle switch that detects
whether the driver or front passenger
seat belt is fastened. The seat belt
buckle switch may adjust the inflation
rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags.
This vehicle is equipped with Supple-
mental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
(SAB) to provide enhanced protection
for an occupant during a side impact.
The SABs are located in the outboard
side of the front seats.
