warning lamp
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia
reel which automatically adjusts the
length of the strap to your size.
d
o not use accessories (clothes pegs,
clips, safety pins, etc.) which allow the
seat belt straps to fit loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear

d

epending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of inflation
of the airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt against the body of the
occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active
when the ignition is switched on.
Unfastening
Press the red button.
When the vehicle is started,
this warning lamp comes on
if a user at the front has not
fastened their seat belt.
Good practice
The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all strapped in
securely before moving off.
The height of the seat belt for the
centre seat of the front bench cannot
be adjusted.
