GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

Seat belts are also to be worn by expect-
ing mothers: the risk of injury in the case
of accident is greatly reduced for them and
the unborn child if they are wearing a seat
belt.
Pregnant women must of course position
the lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes under the abdomen (
fig.
46).
HOW TO KEEP 
THE SEAT BELTS 
ALWAYS IN EFFICIENT
CONDITIONS
– Always use the belts with the tape well
taut and never twisted; make sure that it
is free to run without impediments.
– After a serious accident, replace the belt
being worn at that time, even if it does not
appear damaged. Always replace the seat
belts if pretensioners have been activated.
– To clean the belts, wash by hand with
natural soap, rinse and leave to dry in the
shade. Never use strong detergents, bleach
or dyes or any other chemical substance that
might weaken the fibres.
– Prevent the reels from getting wet: cor-
rect operation of them is only guaranteed
if water does not get inside.
– Replace the seat belt if it shows signif-
icant wear or cut signs.

Each seat belt must be
worn by one person only;
do not carry children on your knee
using a single seat belt for both
(fig. 45). Do not fasten other ob-
jects to the body.
