See the seat belt section for more detailed seat belt instructions in English. Utilisation correcte des ceintures de sécurité qu'elle ● Tendez la sangle diagonale de sorte couvre complètement l'épaule, sans entrer en contact avec le cou ou glisser de l'épaule. ● Placez la sangle abdominale le plus bas possible sur les hanches. ● Réglez la position du dossier de siège. Asseyez-vous le dos le plus droit possible et calez- vous bien dans le siège. ● Ne vrillez pas la ceinture de sécurité. 497 RAV4_U Rav4_U_42759U.book Page 498 Thursday, May 14, 2009 7:19 AM ATTENTION ■ Lorsque vous utilisez la ceinture de sécurité du siège central de la deuxième rangée N'utilisez pas la ceinture de sécurité du siège central de deuxième rangée si l'une des 2 boucles est déverrouillée. Si une seule des boucles est verrouillée, ceci peut entraîner des blessures graves, voire mortelles en cas de freinage brusque ou de collision. Entretien et soin ■ Ceintures de sécurité Nettoyez avec un chiffon ou une éponge humectée d'eau savonneuse tiède. Profitez de l'occasion pour vérifier régulièrement que les ceintures ne sont pas effilochées, entaillées, ou ne paraissent pas exagérément usées. ATTENTION ■ Détérioration et usure des ceintures de sécurité Inspectez les ceintures de sécurité périodiquement. Contrôlez qu'elles ne sont pas entaillées, effilochées, et que leurs ancrages ne sont pas desserrés. N'utilisez pas une ceinture de sécurité défectueuse avant qu'elle ne soit remplacée. Une ceinture de sécurité défectueuse n'apporte aucune garantie de protection de l'occupant en cas d'accident. 498 RAV4_U Rav4_U_42759U.book Page 502 Thursday, May 14, 2009 7:19 AM Alphabetical index
