Seats, restraints55Seat belts
The seat belts are locked during hardacceleration or deceleration of the
vehicle, holding the occupants in the
seat position. Thereby the risk of
injury is considerably reduced.

In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only one person at a time. Child
restraint system 3 64.
Periodically check all parts of the belt
system for damage, soiling and
proper functionality.
Have damaged components
replaced. After an accident, have the
belts and triggered belt pretensioners replaced by a workshop.
Note
Make sure that the belts are not
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged
objects or trapped. Prevent dirt from
getting into the belt retractors.

reminder, indicated for front seats by
