Seat belts protect

Passengers not wearing seat belts risk severe injuries in the

event of an accident.

Properly worn seat belts hold the vehicle occupants in the correct sitting posi-

tions and substantially reduce the kinetic energy in the event of an accident.

Seat belts also help to prevent uncontrolled movements that could lead to

severe injuries. In addition, properly worn seat belts reduce the danger of

being thrown from the car.

Passengers wearing their seat belts correctly benefit greatly from the ability

of the belts to absorb kinetic energy. The front crumple zones and other

passive safety features (such as the airbag system) are also designed to

absorb the kinetic energy generated in a collision. Taken together, all these

features reduce the forces acting on the occupants and consequently the risk

of injury.

Our examples describe frontal collisions. Of course, properly worn seat belts

reduce substantially the risk of injury in all other types of accidents. 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 properly worn seat belts to be an effective means of substantially

reducing the risk of injury and improving the chances of survival in a serious

accident. Furthermore, properly worn seat belts improve the protection

provided 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

frontal accidents. The front airbags will not be triggered during minor frontal

collisions, minor side collisions, rear collisions, rolls or accidents in which the

airbag trigger threshold in the control unit is not exceeded.

Therefore, you should always wear your seat belt and ensure that your

passengers have fastened their seat belts properly before you drive off!

Safety notes on using seat belts

If seat belts are used correctly, they can reduce the risk of

injury in an accident.

– Always wear the seat belt as described in this booklet.

– Ensure that the seat belts can be fastened at all times and are not

damaged.

WARNING

•If the seat belts are worn incorrectly or not at all, the risk of severe inju-

ries increases. The optimal protection from seat belts can be achieved only

if you use them properly.
