Seat belts
Do not carry children on a
passenger’s lap. Children must
be seated in their own seat.
If the seat belt has been
subjected to strong
mechanical stress, for
example during a collision, it must be
completely replaced together with its
anchorages, the anchor point screws
and the pretensioner. In fact, even if
there are no visible defects, the seat
belt could have lost some of its
resistance.
Pregnant women must always
observe local legislation
regarding the use of seat
belts. Make sure in any case that the
lower section of the belt is secured
well down on the hips, below the
abdominal region of the body.
Proper use of the seat belts
1)
Always use the seat belts with the
belt completely flat, not twisted; Make
sure the belt can move freely and is not
obstructed by anything.
2)
The seat belts must be replaced any
time the pretensioners are activated or
whenever the belt is clearly damaged
or worn.
3)
Wash the seat belts by hand using
water and Ph neutral soap, rinse them
and allow them to dry in the shade. Do
not use strong detergents, bleaches,
colorants or other chemicals which
may weaken the belt fabric.
4)
Make sure the retractors do not get
wet: they are designed to work
correctly only if kept dry.
