The seat belt is not routed over sharp, pointed
or fragile objects.
If such objects are located on or in your cloth- ing, e.g. pens, keys, spectacles, etc. stow
these in a suitable location.
R Only one person should use each seat belt at
any one time.
Babies and children must never travel sitting
on the lap of another vehicle occupant. In the event of an accident, they could be crushed
between the vehicle occupant and seat belt.
R Do not secure any objects with a seat belt if
the seat belt is being used by one of the vehi-
cle's occupants.
You must also make sure that objects, e.g.
cushions, are never placed between a person and the seat.
Seat belts are solely intended to secure and
restrain persons. To secure objects, luggage or
loads, always observe the "Loading guidelines"
(Y page 305).
Fastening and adjusting the seat belts Observe the safety notes on seat belts
(Y
page 43) and the information on correct use
of seat belts (Y page 44).
If a passenger is wearing the centre rear seat
