Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
Seat belts are also to be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the case of impact is greatly reduced
for them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.
Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes over the pelvis and under
the abdomen fig. 113. While pregnancy
progresses, the driver must adjust both
seat and steering wheel to have full
control over the vehicle (pedals and
steering wheel must be easy to access).
The maximum clearance should be kept
between the abdomen and the steering
wheel.
113
The seat belt strap must not be twisted.
The upper part must pass over the
shoulder and cross the chest diagonally.
The lower part must adhere to the
pelvis fig. 114, not to the abdomen of
the occupant. Never use devices (clips,
clamps, etc.) that hold the seat belt away
from your body.
114
Each seat belt must be used by only one
person. Never travel with a child sitting
on the passenger's lap and a single belt
to protect them both fig. 115. In general,
do not place any objects between the
person and the belt.

SEAT BELTS MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, carefully observe the
following warnings:
always use the seat belt well stretched
and never twisted; make sure that it is
free to run without obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the seat belt after an accident
of a certain severity even if it does not
appear to be damaged. Always replace
the seat belt if the pretensioners were

deployed;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.

After its activation, contact a Dedicated
Alfa Romeo Dealership to have it replaced.
64) Removing or otherwise tampering with
pretensioner and seat belt components is
strictly prohibited. Any intervention on
these components must be performed
