Safety

Wear the seat belt correctly
Make sure that the shoulder section

centre of the shoulder and move
the lap section as far down over
the hips as possible. The belts
should always be worn so that
they fit tightly (see illustration).

25 cm

Adjust seat and sit in correct position
The front seats should not be positioned
too close to the steering wheel or dashboard. Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm
and sit in a normal upright position. The top of the head restraint should be at
eye level or higher. Always keep your feet in the footwell.

Page 2

Safety of children in the vehicle
Children under 12 should travel on the rear
seat. They must be protected by a child
restraint system which complies with the
European standard ECE-R 44 and is suitable for
the child’s height and weight. The safest place
for the child restraint system is behind the
front passenger’s seat.

WARNING!
Please follow the instructions in the Owner’s
Manual and read the instructions provided
by the child seat manufacturer.

1 Adjusting front seats · Safety

Seat belts must be worn on every journey, even on short trips in town. This applies to the front and rear seats.
To ensure that the seat belts, belt tensioners and airbags are fully effective, please note the following points:
