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 the seat
belts. Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.

Seat belts are also to be worn by expec-
tant mothers: the risk of injury in the event
of an accident is greatly reduced for them
and the unborn child if they are wearing
a seat belt.

Of course, mothers-to-be must position
the lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes over the pelvis and under
the abdomen fig. 5.

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. 6, not to the abdomen.
Do not use devices (clips, etc.) to hold
the seat belt away from your body.
