Seat Belts And Pregnant Women; Supplemental Restraint System (Srs) - Air Bags - Fiat 500 Abarth Owner's Manual

Seat Belts And Pregnant Women

We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts
throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is

Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.

abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.
