• To provide a warning if one of the rear
seatbelts is unfastened during a journey.
This warning takes the form of a message
on the information display along with the
audio/visual signal. The warning ceases
when the seatbelt is re-fastened or when
manually acknowledged by pressing the
READ button.
The message on the information display
showing which seatbelts are in use is always

Certain markets
An unbelted driver will be reminded to fasten
his or her seatbelt through an audio and vis-
ual reminder. At low speed, the audio
reminder will sound for the first 6 seconds.
Seatbelt tensioner
All the seatbelts are equipped with seatbelt
tensioners. A mechanism in the seatbelt ten-
sioner tightens the belt around the body in
the event of a sufficiently violent collision.
The belt then provides more effective
restraint for occupants.
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 remove the seatbelt
from the seatbelt guide and position it fur-
thest back on the seatbelt bar. Refit the seat-
belt into the seatbelt guide afterwards.
