Seatbelts 01
the vehicle as they drive (which means they
must be able to easily operate the foot ped-
als and steering wheel). Within this context,
they should strive to position the seat with as
large a distance as possible between their
abdomen and the steering wheel.
Seatbelt tensioner
All the seatbelts are equipped with belt ten-
sioners. A mechanism in the belt tensioner
tightens the seatbelt around the body in the
event of a sufficiently forceful collision. This
provides more effective restraint for occu-
pants.
Seatbelt guide
The seatbelt guide is fitted on both the driver’s
seat and passenger seat.
The seatbelt guide is an aid for providing bet-
ter access to the seatbelt. When getting into
and out of the rear seat the seatbelt is re-
moved from the seatbelt guide and posi-
tioned furthest back on the seatbelt bar.
