Locking
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that the buckle
3
locks into
the catch
5
(check that it is locked by
pulling on the buckle
3
).
If the belt jams, allow it to return
slightly before attempting to unwind it
again.
If your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an
approved dealer.
Driver’s seat belt reminder
and, depending on the vehicle,
passenger seat belt reminder
This appears on the instrument panel
when the ignition is switched on if the
driver’sand/orpassenger'sseatbelt
(as long as the passenger seat is
occupied) is not fastened.
Depending on the vehicle, if the seat is
occupied and one of these seat belts is
not fastened or becomes unfastened
while the vehicle is moving at a speed
over approximately 12 mph (20 km/h),
the warning light flashes and a
beep sounds for approximately 120
seconds.
Note: an object placed on the
passenger seat may activate the
warning light in some cases,
depending on the vehicle.
Unlocking
Press the button

and the seat belt
will be rewound by the inertia reel.
Guide the belt.
– No modification must
be made to the
originally-fitted restraint
system components (seat belts,
seats and their mountings). For
special operations (e.g. fitting
child seats) please contact an
approved dealer.
– Do not use devices which give
any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes
pegs, clips, etc.), as a seat belt
which is worn too loosely risks
causing injury in the event of an
accident.
– Never wear the shoulder strap
under your arm or behind your
back.
– Never use the same belt for
more than one person and never
hold a baby or child on your lap
with your seat belt around them.
– The belt should never be
twisted.
– Following an accident, have the
seat belts checked and replaced if
necessary. Always replace your
seat belts as soon as they show
any signs of wear.
