tivated if objects are placed on the front pas‐
senger seat.
One person per safety belt
Never allow more than one person to wear
a single safety belt. Never allow infants or small
children to ride on a passenger's lap.◀
Putting on the belt
Damage to safety belts
Lay the belt, without twisting, snugly
across the lap and shoulders, as close to the
body as possible. Make sure that the belt lies low
around the hips in the lap area and does not
press on the abdomen. Otherwise, the belt can
slip over the hips in the lap area in a frontal im‐
pact and injure the abdomen.
In the case of strain caused by accidents or
damage:
Have the safety belts, including the safety belt
tensioners, replaced and have the belt anchors
checked.
Checking and replacing safety belts
The safety belt must not lie across the neck, rub
on sharp edges, be routed over solid or breaka‐
ble objects, or be pinched.◀
Have the work performed only by your au‐
thorized dealership; otherwise, it cannot be en‐
sured that this safety feature will function prop‐
erly.◀
Reduction of restraining effect
Avoid wearing clothing that prevents the
belt from fitting properly and pull the shoulder
