Using the belts 
Fitting seat belts 
Pull the belt out of the retractor and guide 
it across the body, making certain that it is 
not twisted. 
Insert latch plate into buckle. Backrest 
must not be tilted too far back as this 
would affect the operation of the seat 
belts; recommended maximum tilting 
angle approx. 25°. The lap belt must be 
straight and lie snugly against the body. 
Tighten lap belt at frequent intervals whilst 
driving by tugging diagonal part of belt.

Bulky clothing prevents the belt from fitting 
properly. The belt must not rest against 
hard or fragile objects in the pockets of 
your clothing (e.g. ballpoint pens, keys, 
spectacles) because these could cause 
injury. Do not place any objects (e.g. 
handbags, mobile phones) between the 
belt and your body.
