travelling in your vehicle. You must

also comply with the legislation of

the particular country you are in.

bench seat ꢀ 82 is locked

in position correctly so

that the rear seat belts will op-

erate correctly.

Before starting, first adjust your dri-

ving position, then ask all occupants

to adjust their seat belts to ensure

optimum protection.

Incorrectly adjusted or

twisted seat belts may

cause injuries in the

event of an accident.

Use one seat belt per person,

whether child or adult.

Even pregnant women should

wear a seat belt. In this case, en-

sure that the lap belt is not ex-

erting too much pressure on the

abdomen, but do not allow any

slack.

Warnings

The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

– No modification must be made to the originally-fitted restraint system components (seat belts, seats and

their mountings). For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats) please contact an approved dealer.

– Do not use devices which give any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.), as a seat belt which is

worn too loosely risks causing injury in the event of an accident.

– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.

– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your lap with your seat belt

around them.

– The belt should never be twisted.

– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary. Always replace your seat belts as

soon as they show any signs of wear.

– When the rear bench seat is being put back, make sure that the seat belts and buckles are correctly positioned so

that they can be used properly.

– Make sure that the seat belt buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.

– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as they could prevent it from being prop-

erly secured.

– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people

or objects).
