General information
Heavy braking can have serious consequen-
ces if the seatbelts are not used. Ensure that
all passengers use their seatbelts.
It is important that the seatbelt lies against
the body so it can provide maximum protec-
tion. Do not lean the backrest too far back.
The seatbelt is designed to protect in a nor-
mal seating position.
Putting on a seatbelt
Pull the belt out slowly and secure it by
pressing its locking tab into the seatbelt
buckle. A loud "click" indicates that the belt
has locked.
