Checking the seat belts
From time to time, check operation of all
seat belt system components and check for
damage. Have damaged components
replaced. Have seat belts and deployed
belt tensioners replaced after an accident.
Do not perform any alterations on the seat
belts, their anchorages, the automatic
retractors or the belt buckles.
Make sure that seat belts are not damaged
or trapped by sharp-edged objects.

Belt tensioners

The front seat belt systems are fitted with
belt tensioners. The seat belts are pulled
down at the belt buckles and the lower,
outer attachment points 3 in the event of
an accident of a certain severity. This
tensions the seat belts in a uniform
manner.
