General information
The safety belt reminder is automatically activated each time the engine starts.
The safety belt reminder is also activated when a passenger unbuckles a rear seat safety belt during the trip.
In some country versions, the safety belt reminder is also issued when the safety belt is not buckled and heavy objects are on the rear seats.

Safety mode
In critical situations, for instance during an emergency stop, the front safety belts tighten automatically.
If the situation passes without an accident occurring, the belt tension relaxes.
If the belt tension does not loosen automatically, stop the vehicle and unbuckle the safety belt using the red button in the safety belt buckle. Fasten the safety belt before continuing on your trip.
