Seat Belts - Vauxhall Crossland X 2020 Owner's Manual

46 Seats, restraints

Seat belts

The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle, holding the occupants in
the seat position. Therefore the risk of
injury is considerably reduced.
9 Warning
Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger
their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are designed to be used by
only one person at a time.
Child restraint system 3 55.
Periodically check all parts of the seat
belt system for damage, soiling and
proper functionality.
Have damaged components
replaced. After an accident, have the
seat belts and triggered seat belt
pretensioners replaced by a
workshop.
Notice
Make sure that the seat belts are
neither damaged by shoes or sharp-
edged objects nor trapped. Prevent
dirt from getting into the seat belt
retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Each seat is equipped with a seat belt
reminder, indicated by a control
indicator X for the respective seat in
the roof console 3 82.
Seat belt force limiters
Stress on the body is reduced by the
gradual release of the seat belt during
a collision.
Seat belt pretensioners
In the event of a head-on, rear-end or
side-on collision of a certain severity,
the front seat belts and the outer rear
seat belts are tightened by seat belt
pretensioners.
9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of seat belts) can trigger the
seat belt pretensioners.
Deployment of the seat belt
pretensioners is indicated by
continuous illumination of control
indicator v 3 83.
Triggered seat belt pretensioners
must be replaced by a workshop.
Seat belt pretensioners can only be
triggered once.
Notice
Do not affix or install accessories or
other objects that may interfere with
the operation of the seat belt
pretensioners. Do not make any
