manually acknowledged by pressing the
READ button.
The message on the information display
showing which seatbelts are in use is always

Seatbelt tensioner
All the seatbelts are equipped with belt ten-
sioners. A mechanism in the belt tensioner
tightens the belt around the body in the event
of a sufficiently forceful collision. This pro-
vides more effective restraint by the belt for
passengers.
Seatbelt guide
The seatbelt guide is fitted on both the driver's
seat and passenger seat.
The seatbelt guide is an aid for providing bet-
ter access to the seatbelt. When getting into
and out of the rear seat remove the seatbelt
from the seatbelt guide and position it fur-
thest back on the seatbelt bar. Refit the seat-
belt into the seatbelt guide afterwards.
