The driver must ensure that passengers use the   seat   belts   correctly   and   that   they   are   all  
f

astened   before   setting   off.
Wherever
  you   are   seated   in   the   vehicle,  
a

lways fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do
  not   interchange   the   seat   belt   buckles   as  
t

hey   will   not   fulfil   their   role   fully.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia   reel  
p

ermitting   automatic   adjustment   of   the  
l

ength   of   the   strap   to   your   size.   The   seat   belt  
i

s   stowed   automatically   when   not   in   use.
Before
  and   after   use,   ensure   that   the   seat  
b

The
  lower   part   of   the   strap   must   be  
p

  upper   part   must   be   positioned   in   the  
h

ollow   of   the   shoulder.
