SAFETY

SEAT BELTS

USING THE SEAT BELTS

The belt should be worn keeping the torso straight
and rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue A fig. 77
and insert it into the buckle B fig. 77, until it clicks
into place.
On removal, if it jams, let it rewind for a short
stretch, then pull it out again without jerking.
To unfasten seat belts, press button C fig. 77.
Guide the belt while it is rewinding to prevent it
from twisting. Through the reel, the belt
automatically adapts to the body of the passenger
wearing it, allowing freedom of movement.

WARNING

Never press button C when travelling.

The reel may lock when the car is parked on a steep

slope: this is perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
reel mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled sharply
or in the event of sudden braking, collisions and
high-speed bends.

The rear seat is fitted with inertia seat belts with
three anchor points and a reel.

WARNING

Remember that in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not

wearing seat belts are exposed to a very serious
risk and also represent a serious danger for
the front seat occupants.
