The warning light turns on

correctly;

❒ the passenger's seat belt is not fas-

tened correctly, heavy objects are

❒ unfastening the driver's or the pas-

senger's seat belt.

With car moving the warning light will
turn on flashing together with the buzzer
for a short time.

The warning light will then stay on glow-
ing steadily.

The warning light (where pro-

vided) turn on (on certain versions to-
gether with the message on the display)

case have them changed as soon as pos-
sible.

IMPORTANT Since the car is fitted
with wear sensors for the front brake
pads, when changing them, check also
the rear brake pads.
