SEAT BELTS

With the doors closed, the
warning light appears on the central
display when the vehicle ignition is
switched on if the driver's and/or
front passenger's seat belt(s) (if this
seat is occupied) are not fastened.
When the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 12 mph (20 km/h), the
warning light appears on the
central display if a front seat is occu-
pied and the seat belt is not fas-
tened.
It is accompanied by the graphic
6
which appears for approximately 60
seconds each time one of the front
seat belts is fastened or unfastened.
When the vehicle speed exceeds ap-
proximately 12 mph (20 km/h), if one
of the front seat belts is or becomes
unfastened during the journey:
– the warning light flashes on
the central display;
and
– a beep sound for approximately
120 seconds;
and
– the graphic
6
is displayed for ap-
proximately 180 seconds and the
symbol for the seat concerned
changes to red.
Always make sure that the front
passengers are properly fastened in
and that the number of seat belts in-
dicated as fastened corresponds to
the number of front seats occupied.
Note: an object placed on the pas-
senger seat may activate the warn-
ing light in some cases.
