SEAT BELTS
Ensure that all seat belts are worn correctly - an improperly
worn seat belt increases the risk of death or serious injury in the
event of a collision. Read the instructions below and the advice
contained under the heading 'Seat belt safety' on the previous page.
Fastening the belt
HB0241
Pull the seat belt steadily over the shoulder and across the chest
and, ensuring the webbing is not twisted, insert the metal tongue
plate into the buckle nearest the wearer - a 'click' indicates that the
belt is securely locked.
NOTE: Where possible, rear seat passengers should adjust their position
to enable the seat belt webbing to cross the shoulder without pressing on the
neck.
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body
(pelvis, chest and shoulders) and can only be worn safely with the
seats in a near-upright position; DO NOT allow the front
passenger to travel with the seat steeply reclined (see also 'Seating
positions', page 26).
Seat Belts
Releasing the belt
Press the red button on the seat belt buckle.
Adjusting the upper anchorage (front seat belts only)
HB0240
To reduce the likelihood of injury in an accident, the seat belt
upper anchorage point should be adjusted so that the belt webbing
crosses the shoulder, MIDWAY BETWEEN THE NECK AND
THE EDGE OF THE SHOULDER.
Adjust the height of the front seat anchorage point, by pressing the
button (arrowed in illustration) and sliding the anchor up or down.
