•
You must always keep your feet
in the foot well during a journey –
never on the dashboard or on the
seats.
• The belts must be kept clean as
dirt may affect the proper function-
ing of the retractors (see also the
"Care of vehicle" chapter).
•
The slot for the belt tongue must
not be blocked with paper or any-
thing similar, as the tongue can
otherwise not engage properly.
•
Check your seat belts regularly.
If you find any damage on the belt,
belt connections, retractor or the
locking pieces, the belt must be
replaced by a Technical Service
Centre.
•
The seat belts may not be
removed from the vehicle or modi-
fied in any way. Do not attempt to
remove the seat belts yourself.
•
Belts which are stressed and
thus stretched in an accident must
be replaced by a Technical Service
Centre.
Note
In some export countries seat belt func-
tions could differ from the 3 point or lap
belts described on the next pages
