fastened, the

lights up for six seconds each time the engine
is started. It then goes out if the driver and
the co-driver have fastened their seat belts.

every vehicle occupant that the center of the
head restraint supports the back of the head

on "Air bags" (Y

restraint so that it is as close as possible to
the back of your head.
