Seat belts must also be worn by ex-
pectant mothers: the risk of injury in
the case of accident is much greater
for them and their unborn child too
if they do not have a seat belt on.
Of course they must position the
lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes under the abdomen

HOW TO KEEP THE SEAT
BELTS IN PROPER WORKING
ORDER AT ALL TIMES
1) When wearing your seat belt, al-
ways make sure it is not twisted and
can wind/unwind freely without stick-
ing.
2) Following a serious accident, re-
place the belt being worn at the time,
even if it does not seem damaged. Re-
place the pretensioners even if they
have not triggered.
3) When cleaning the belts, wash
them by hand with water and neutral
soap, rinse them and let them dry in
the shade. Do not use industrial
strength detergents, bleach, colouring
or any other chemical substance that
could weaken the fibres.
4) Do not allow the reels to get wet:
they are only guaranteed to work
properly if they remain dry.
