Seatbelts
01
the vehicle as they drive (which means they
must be able to easily operate the foot ped-
als and steering wheel). Within this context,
they should strive to position the seat with as
large a distance as possible between their
abdomen and the steering wheel.
Seatbelt tensioner
All the seatbelts are equipped with belt ten-
sioners. A mechanism in the belt tensioner
tightens the belt around the body in the event
of a sufficiently forceful collision. This pro-
vides more effective restraint by the belt for
passengers.
Seatbelt guide
The seatbelt guide is fitted on both the driver’s
seat and passenger seat.
The seatbelt guide is an aid for providing bet-
ter access to the seatbelt. When getting into
and out of the rear seat the seatbelt is re-
moved from the seatbelt guide and posi-
tioned furthest back on the seatbelt bar.
