The belt tongues for the rear middle seat are shaped differently so that they only
fit into the correct belt buckle. If you are not able to insert a lock tongue into the
wrong belt lock you probably tried to put it into the wrong buckle.
Taking seat belt off
›
Take off the safety belt in the reverse order to how you fasten it.
›
Manually guide the belt back so that it is easier to fully roll up the webbing, the
seat belt does not twist, does not remain caught between the seatrest and the
trim, and the trim panel is not damaged.
WARNING
After releasing the seat belt hold it tight and let it slowly reel up until both
■
lock tongues lock into the headliner mount and are secured with a magnet -
risk of injury.
Never unlock both lock tongues simultaneously.

Safety for the driver and front passenger wearing their seat belts is enhanced by
the belt tensioners fitted to the inertia reels of the front three-point seat belts.
The three-point seat belts are automatically tensioned in the event of a frontal
collision of a certain severity. The belt tensioners can also be deployed if the seat
belts are not fastened.
The fastened three-point seat belts are automatically tensioned in the event of a
frontal or side collision of a certain severity.
Belt tensioners are not activated in the event of minor frontal collisions, side and
rear-end collisions, in the case of a rollover and also not in accidents in which no
major forces are produced from the front.
