Fastening the seat belts
WARNINGS
- Insert the tongue into the buckle until a click is heard. If you do not hear this click, the seat belt is not properly fastened.
- Make sure the seat belt is properly retracted and is not outside the vehicle when you close the door.

Pull the belt out regularly. It may lock if you pull it too sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.
Press the red button on the buckle to release the belt. Hold the tongue and allow the belt to retract fully and smoothly into the stowed position.
Using seat belts during pregnancy

WARNING
Position the seat belt correctly to protect yourself and your baby. Do not use the lap belt or the shoulder belt alone.
Pregnant women must always wear their seat belt. The lap portion of a belt passing over the shoulder and abdomen must be placed below the hips, under the belly, and be as snug as possible.
The shoulder portion of the seat belt must be positioned so that it crosses the middle of the shoulder and chest.
