Seat belts
Alwayswearyourseatbeltwhentrav
elling in your vehicle. You must also
complywiththelegislationofthepar
ticular country you are in.
Before starting, adjust your driving
position and then have each occu
pant adjust their seat belt to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving position
(depending on the vehicle)
– Sit well back in your seat (having
removed your coat or jacket, etc.). This
is essential to ensure that your back is
positioned correctly;
– adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals. Your seat should
beasfarbackaspossiblewhilestillal
lowing you to fully depress the pedals.
The seatback should be adjusted so
that your arms are slightly bent when
you hold the steering wheel;
– adjust the position of your head
rest. For maximum safety, your head
must be as close as possible to the
headrest;
– adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the best
possible view;
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Make sure that the rear
bench seat 🡺57 is locked
in position correctly so that
the rear seat belts will operate
correctly.
Incorrectly adjusted or
twisted seat belts may
cause injuries in the
event of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should
wearaseatbelt.Inthiscase,en

domen, but do not allow any
slack.
Adjusting the seat belts
To ensure the correct adjustment and
positioning of the seat belts on all
seats:
– adjust the seats (seat position and
seatback angle, if available);
– sit with your back firmly against the
seatback;
– move the shoulder strap 1 as close
as possible to the base of the neck
without it actually resting against it (if
necessary, adjust the height of the seat
belt if possible) and make sure that the
shoulder strap 1 is in contact with the
shoulder;
– position the lap strap 2 so that it lies
flat on the thighs and against the
pelvis.
