GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS

The driver is responsible for respecting
and ensuring that all the other occupants
of the car also respect the local laws in
force in relation to the use of seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before start-
ing off.

Seat belts must also be used by pregnant
women: risk will be significantly reduced
for both the expectant mother and the
child in the event of an accident.

Of course they must position the lower
part of the belt very low down so that it
passes under the abdomen, see fig. 4.

The belt must not be twist-
ed. The upper part must

cross the shoulder and the chest di-
agonally. The lower part must adhere
to the hips fig. 4 not to the abdomen.
Do not use devices (clips, etc.) to hold
the seat belt away from your body.
