GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

Seat belts are also to be worn by ex-

pectant mothers: the risk of injury in
the case of accident is greatly reduced
for them and the unborn child if they
are wearing a seat belt.

Of course they must position the

lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes under the abdomen

HOW TO KEEP THE SEAT
BELTS ALWAYS IN
EFFICIENT CONDITIONS

1) Always use the belt with the tape

taut and never twisted; make sure that
it is free to run without impediments.

2) After a serious accident, replace

the belt being worn at that time, even
if it does not appear damaged. Always
replace it in case of pretensioner ac-
tivation.

3) To clean the belts, wash by hand

with neutral soap, rinse and leave to
dry in the shade. Never use strong de-
tergents, bleach or dyes or other
chemical substance that might weaken
the fibres.

4) Prevent the reels from getting

wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get in-
side.

5) Replace seat belt if showing wear

or cut signs.
