Seat belts
Seat belts
The seat belts with integrated belt ten!
sioners and belt limiters combine with
the airbags to form a restraint system
that offers maximum scope for protection
in the event of an accident.
Danger of injury!
Airbags represent an additional
form of protection but are no substitute
for wearing a seat belt. To reduce the
risk of serious or fatal injuries, make
sure that all occupants, particularly
pregnant women, always fasten their
seat belt correctly, are sitting in a
normal position and have their seat
more or less in the upright position.
Danger of injury!
If you do not fit the seat belt cor!
rectly or do not engage it properly in
the catch, it will be unable to protect
you in the manner intended. In certain
circumstances this could result in se!
rious or even fatal injuries. You should
therefore make sure that all occupants
! particularly pregnant women ! are al!
ways wearing their seat belt correctly.
Make sure that the belt
! runs over the hip bone as low down as
possible, i.e. across the hip joint
and not across the stomach.
! is taut.
! is not twisted.
! runs centrally over the shoulder.
! does not run across the neck or is un!
derneath the arm.
! is sufficiently taut across the pel!
vis; pull up the belt running across
the chest to tauten it.
Always use a seat belt for one person
only.
Never use a seat belt for an object and a
person at one and the same time.
Avoid wearing bulky clothing, e.g. a
winter coat.
Do not allow the belt to run across sharp
or fragile objects, particularly on or
inside your clothes, such as glasses,
pens, keys, etc. The belt could other!
wise tear and expose you or other occu!
pants to a risk of injury.
Never carry children travelling on the
lap of an occupant. In the event of an
accident, abrupt braking or sudden
changes of direction, it would no long!
er be possible to hold the child secure!
ly, and both the child and other
occupants could sustain potentially fa!
tal injuries as a result.
