Safety
the risk of severe or even lethal injuries. The risk
of severe or fatal injuries is especially height-
ened when a deploying airbag strikes a vehicle
occupant who has assumed an incorrect sitting
position. The driver is responsible for all people,
particularly children, inside the vehicle.
The following list contains examples of incor-
rect sitting positions that could be dangerous
for all vehicle occupants.
When the vehicle is in motion:
Never stand in the vehicle.
Never stand on the seats.
Never kneel on the seats.
Never tilt your seat backrest too far to the
rear.
Never lean against the instrument panel.
Never lie on the rear seats.
Never sit on the front edge of a seat.
Never sit sideways.
Never lean out of a window.
Never put your feet out of a window.
Never put your feet on the instrument panel.
Never place your feet on the bench or on the
backrest of the seat.
Never travel in a footwell.
Never sit on the armrests.
Never travel without wearing the seat belt.
Never travel in the luggage compartment.
WARNING
Sitting in an incorrect position increases the
risk of severe or fatal injuries in the event
of accidents and sudden braking or manoeu-
vres.
All occupants must sit correctly during the
journey and wear the seat belt correctly.
Occupants of the vehicle that are not sit-
ting correctly, not wearing the seat belt or
are not at a proper distance of the airbag risk
suering very serious or lethal injuries, espe-
cially if the airbags deploy and strike them.
Seat belts
Introduction
Fig.19 Drivers with properly worn seat belts
will not be thrown forward in the event of
sudden braking.
Properly worn seat belts hold the occupants
in the proper position. They also help prevent
uncontrolled movements that may result in seri-
ous injury and reduce the risk of being thrown
out of the vehicle in case of an accident.
Vehicle occupants wearing their seat belts cor-
rectly benefit greatly from the ability of the
belts to absorb kinetic energy. In addition, the
front part of your vehicle and other passive
safety features (such as the airbag system) are
designed to absorb the kinetic energy released
in a collision. Taken together, all these features
reduce the releasing kinetic energy and conse-
quently, the risk of injury. This is why it is so
important to fasten seat belts before every trip,
even when "just driving around the corner".
Ensure that your passengers wear their seat
belts as well. Accident statistics have shown
that wearing seat belts is an eective means of
substantially reducing the risk of injury and im-
proving the chances of survival when involved
in a serious accident. Furthermore, properly
worn seat belts improve the protection provi-
ded by airbags in the event of an accident. For
this reason, wearing a seat belt is required by
law in most countries.
Although your vehicle is equipped with airbags,
the seat belts must be fastened and worn. The
front airbags, for example, are only triggered in
some cases of head-on collision. The front air-
bags will not be triggered during minor frontal
or side collisions, rear-end collisions, overturns
or accidents in which the airbag trigger thresh-
old value in the control unit is not exceeded.
