SEAT BELTS (3/3)
Check that the rear seat
belts are positioned and
operating correctly each
time the rear bench seat is
moved.
Rear seat belts 8
The belts are locked, unlocked and
adjusted in the same way as the front
belts.
The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.
– No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally
fitted restraint system: seat belts, seats and their mountings. For spe-\
cial operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised deal\
er.
– Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes
pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause inj\
ury in the
event of an accident.
– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.
– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby o\
r child on your lap with your seat belt around them.
– The belt should never be twisted.
– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if neces\
sary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signs of wear.
– When positioning the rear bench seat, make sure that the seat belts and \
buck- les are correctly positioned so that they can be used properly.
– Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.
– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch\
as they could prevent it from being properly secured.
– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be \
hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or objects).8

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres.
Transporting a child without
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of
the child, even if you yourself are
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, replace the child
seat and have the seat belts and
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being
opened, use the “Child
safety” device (refer to the
information on “Opening
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or by locking the
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (2/3)
The two rings 1 are located between
the seatback and the seat base and are
identified by a marking. Use the access
guides 2 of the child seat to ease it into
place and lock it into the rings 1.
The third ring 3 or 5 is used to attach
the upper strap on some child seats.Rear seats
Remove the luggage compartment
cover to pass the belt 4 between the
seatback and the luggage compart-
ment cover (refer to the information on
the “Luggage compartment cover” in
Section 3).

The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child sea\
ts with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a dif-
ferent type of child seat, seat belt or other objects to these anchorage\
points.
Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.
If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX an\
chorage points checked and replace your
child seat.

rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.
