Fastening and unfastening seat belts

Seat belts that are fastened correctly offer good protection in the event of an
accident. They reduce the risk of an injury and increase the chance of survival
in the event of a major accident.
The seat belts reduce kinetic energy to a considerable extent. They also pre-
vent uncontrolled movements which, in turn, may well result in severe injuries.
When transporting a child the following instructions must be observed
» page 20 , Transporting children safely .
WARNING■
Fasten seat belts before every journey! This also applies to other passen-
gers - there is a danger of injury!■
Maximum seat belt protection is only achieved if you are correctly seated
» page 10 , Correct and safe seated position .
■
The seat backrests of the front seats must not be tilted too far to the
rear, otherwise the seatbelts can lose their effectiveness.
WARNINGInformation on dealing with the safety belts■The belt webbing must not be jammed in-between at any point or twis-
ted or chafe against any sharp edges.■
Make sure you do not catch the seat belt in the door when closing it.
WARNINGInformation on the proper use of the safety belts■Adjust the height of the belt in such a way that the shoulder part of the
belt is roughly positioned across the middle of your shoulder - on no ac-
count across your neck.WARNING (Continued)■ No two persons (also not children) should ever use a single seat belt to-
gether.■
The lock tongue should only be inserted into the lock which is the correct
one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will reduce its capacity to
protect and the risk of injury increases.
■
Many layers of clothing and loose clothing (e. g. a winter coat over a jack-
et) do not allow you to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of
the seat belts.
■
Do not use clamps or other objects to adjust seat belts (e.g. for shorten-
ing the belts for smaller persons).
■
The seat belts for the rear seats can only fulfil their function reliably
when the seat backrests are correctly locked into position » page 63.
WARNINGInformation on the care and maintenance of the safety belts■The belt webbing must always be kept clean. Soiled belt webbing may im-
pair proper operation of the inertia reel » page 134.■
The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do not at-
tempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
■
Check the condition of all the seat belts on a regular basis. If damage to
the parts of the seat belt system (e.g. the strap, the belt connectors, the
retractor, the lock or similar) are detected, the seat belt in question must
be replaced by a specialist immediately.
■
Seat belts which have been subject to stress in an accident should be re-
placed by a specialist garage. The anchorage points for the belts should al-
so be checked.

To lift the vehicle, us the jack from the tool kit. Position the car jack at the
jacking point closest to the flat tyre.

Raise the vehicle until the wheel is a little off the floor.
WARNINGThe following instructions must be observed, otherwise there is risk of in-
jury.■
Ensure the vehicle cannot unexpectedly roll away.
■
Always ensure the base plate of the lifting jack cannot slip.
■ Place a wide and stable base material under the jack if on a loose surfa-
ces (e.g. gravel).
■ Place an anti-slip base material (e.g. a rubber mat) under the jack if on a
smooth surface (e.g. cobblestones).
■
Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed.
■
Never position any body parts (e.g. arms or legs) under the vehicle while
the vehicle is raised.
■
When the vehicle is raised, never start the engine.
CAUTIONIt is important to ensure that the jack is correctly positioned against the bar of
