HOW TO USE THE THIRD
ROW SIDE SEAT BELTS

The belts should be worn keeping

the chest straight and rested against
the seat back.

The belts are fitted with a double fas-

tening tongue.

To fasten the seat belts: pull the seat

belt out gently from the reel and let
it unwind carefully to prevent it from
twisting, then push tongue A-fig. 58
into fastener B (through the related
spring catch) until you hear it click. Let
the belt further unwind and push
tongue C into buckle D.

To unfasten the belts: press button

E, guide the seat belt to retainer B and
release the spring catch by freeing
tongue A. Hang the unfastened seat
belt to the retainer illustrated in
fig. 59.

When the car is parked on a steep

slope the reel mechanism may block;
this is normal. The reel mechanism
prevents the webbing coming out
when it is jerked or if the car brakes
sharply, as in collision or when cor-
nering at high speed.

Never press button E

when travelling.

The seat belt reel mechanism will

adapt the belt to the body of the per-
son wearing it offering freedom of
movement.

Remember that in the

case of a violent collision,
back seat passengers not

wearing seat belts, in addition to
being personally exposed to se-
rious risk, also represent a seri-
ous danger to the passengers in
the front.
