Getting started
Driving
Only one person should use each seat belt
at any one time.
Persons less than 1.50 m tall cannot wear
the seat belts correctly. Therefore, persons
whose height is below 1,50 m may not ride
in the vehicle.

Risk of injury
The seat belt only provides its intended de-
gree of protection if the vehicle occupant is
sitting upright. Avoid seat positions which
do not allow the seat belt to be routed cor-
rectly ( page 51). Otherwise, accidents or
abrupt braking manoeuvres could result in
severe or even fatal injury.
G
Risk of injury
Airbags are designed not to be triggered in
all accident situations, since a correctly fas-
tened seat belt will often be sufficient for
providing an effective degree of protection.
Airbags are not a substitute for seat belts.
To reduce the risk of severe or even fatal in-
jury, make sure that all vehicle occupants –
in particular, pregnant women – always
wear their seat belts correctly and are seat-
ed in an upright position.
