SEAT BELTS
USING THE FRONT AND
REAR SIDE SEAT BELTS
The belt should be worn keeping the chest straight and rested against the
seat back.
To fasten the belt, take hold the tongue (A) and insert it into the buckle
(B), until hearing the locking click.
At removal, if it jams, let it rewind for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button (C). Guide the seat belt with
your hand while it is rewinding, to prevent it from twisting.
Through the reel, the belt automatically adapts to the body of the
passenger wearing it, allowing freedom of movement.
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, in a collision or when
cornering at high speed.
The rear seat is fitted with inertial seat belts with three anchor points
and reel.
Rear seat belts shall be worn as shown in diagram (D) (5-seat versions)
or as shown in diagram (E) (4-seat versions).
