Using the belts
Fitting the b el t
Pull the belt out evenly from the retractor
and guide it across the body, mak ing
certa in that it is not twisted.
Insert the la tch plate into the buckle. The
lap b elt must not be twisted and m ust fit
snugly across the body. Tension the belt
frequently whilst d riv ing by tugging the
diagonal pa rt of the belt.
O n preg nant women in particular the lap
belt must be positioned a s low as
possible across the pelv is in order to
prevent pressure on the abdomen.
Bulk y clothing prevents the belt from fitting
prop erly. The belt must not rest against
ha rd or fragile objects in the pockets of
your clothing (e.g. ballpoint pens, keys,
spectacles) because these could cause
injury. Do not place any objec ts (e.g.
ha ndb ags) between the belt a nd your
body.
Remov ing the belt
To remove the belt, depress the red push-
button on the buckle; the belt will retract
automatically.
