and pretensioner components is strictly
prohibited. Any intervention on these
components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.

sitting on the passenger's lap with a
single belt to protect them both fig.

body.

prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
IMPORTANT The belt must not be
twisted. The upper part must pass over
the shoulder and cross the chest

to the pelvis (as shown in fig. 125)
rather than the abdomen of the
passenger. Never use devices (clips,
clamps, etc.) that hold the seat belt
away from your body.
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
