the following protection systems:
❒ seat belts;
❒ SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
❒ head restraints;
❒ child restraint systems;

SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT
BELTS
The seat belt should be worn
keeping the torso straight and
rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 119 and insert it into
the buckle B, until it clicks into
place.
If the seat belt jams during removal,
let it rewind for a short stretch,
then pull it out again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press
button C. Guide the seat belt with
your hand while it is rewinding,
to prevent it from twisting.
61) 62)
Through the retractor, the seat belt
automatically adapts to the body
of the occupant wearing it, allowing
freedom of movement.
The retractor may lock up when the
vehicle is parked on a steep slope:
this is perfectly normal. Furthermore,
the retractor mechanism locks the
belt if it is pulled sharply or in the
event of sudden braking, collisions
and high-speed bends.
All rear seats (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) are fitted
with inertia seat belts with three
anchor points and a retractor.
The rear seat belts (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) must be worn as
shown infig. 120 - fig. 121.
