Precautions for pregnant women.
We strongly suggest that you use the
seat belt. You can also get effective ad-
vice by consulting with your doctor. The
recommended way of wearing the seat
belt for pregnant women is fundamental-
ly the same as for other passengers.
However, such passengers should take
note of the following:
1) The lap belt should be positioned as
low as possible in the abdomen area,
below the bulge of the belly.
2) The shoulder belt should run over the
passenger's shoulder, over the chest
area but avoiding the passenger's abdo-
men area.
If the seat belt is worn incorrectly, during
emergency braking or collisions, the
seat belt may tighten over the abdomen
area, causing injury or even death to the
pregnant mother and unborn child.
〉
We strongly recommend that passen-
gers who are ill or disabled use the seat
belt. You can also get effective advice by
consulting with your doctor.
〉
When the seatbelts are not in use, it is
important that they do not become twis-
ted or jammed or rub on any sharp
edges. The slot in the seat belt buckle
must not be blocked with paper or other
objects, as this can prevent the latch
plate from engaging properly.
Wear the seat belt properly
〉
Adjust seat backrest until it is vertical or
near-vertical and provides adequate
back support.
〉
The seat belt shall be neat.
〉
The shoulder belt should lie flat on the
center of the shoulder and not on the
neck or elsewhere away from the shoul-
der.
〉
The lap belt should be, as much as pos-
sible, fastened around the lower part of
the hip bone.
Warning
〉
During the drive, all passengers must
fasten their seat belts in the correct fash-
ion. Failure to do so can lead to severe
injury or even death from collisions or
emergency braking as passengers' bod-
ies are not sufficiently bound to seats.
〉
At any time, all passengers should wear
the seatbelt correctly on all journeys.
Failure to do so can lead to severe injury
or even death.
Pretensioner seat belt
When a collision occurs, the pretensioner
can retract the seat belt in an instant to se-
cure the passenger to the seat as much as
possible.
The force limiter can maintain seat belt
load at an acceptable level and reduce
force exerted on the passenger's chest.
