may unexpectedly slide and cause the
driver to lose control of the car.

secured at both sides to prevent them from
moving forward, in the event of sharp
braking, with possible impact with of the
passengers.

been designed to withstand long-term
wear deriving from normal use of the car.
Some precautions are however required.
Avoid prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as
metal buckles and Velcro strips which, by
applying a high pressure on the fabric in
a small area, could cause it to break,
thereby damaging the upholstery.
