FRONT SEAT BELTS
Always wear your seat belt when
travelling in your car. Comply with
the local legislation in the particular
country you are in.
Before driving off:
- First ensure that your driving
position is correct.
- Then adjust your seat belt as
described below to provide
maximum protection.
Incorrectly adjusted seat
belts may cause injuries
in the event of an
accident.
Even pregnant women should
wear a seat belt. In this case,
ensure that the lap belt is not
exerting too much pressure on
the abdomen.
Adjusting your driving position
• Sit with your back firmly against
the seatback.
This is essential to ensure that
your spinal cord is in the correct
position.
• Adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals.
Your seat should be as far back as
possible while still allowing you
to depress the clutch pedal fully.
The seatback should be adjusted
so that your arms are slightly bent
when you hold the steering
wheel.
• Adjust the position of your head
restraint.
For maximum safety your head

the head restraint.
• Adjust the height of the seat.
This adjustment allows you to
select the seat position which
offers you the best possible
vision.
• Adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts.
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
The shoulder strap 1 fits itself
automatically across the chest.
The lap strap 2 should be held
firmly over the thighs and against
the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close to the body as possible, i.e.
avoid wearing heavy clothing or
having bulky objects under the
belts.
