LOAD LIMITERS
To increase passenger safety, the reels contain a load lim-
iter which allows the force acting on the chest and shoul-
ders to be dosed during the belt restraining action in the
event of a frontal impact.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting and ensuring that
all the other occupants of the car also respect the local laws
in force in relation to the use of seat belts. Always fasten
the seat belts before starting off.
Seat belts must also be used by pregnant women: risk will
be significantly reduced for both the expectant mother and
the child in the event of an accident. Pregnant women
must position the lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes over the hips and under the abdomen (see
fig. 3).
