downwards; the diagonal and lap belts are
instantaneously tightened.

they must be replaced. Consult a
workshop.

when the control indicator is unlit.
The seat belts remain fully operational
even when the belt tensioners have been
actuated.
Belt tensioner control indicator v
The seat belt tensioners are monitored
electronically together with the airbags,
and their operational readiness shown by
the control indicator in the instrument
cluster. When the ignition is switched on,
the control indicator illuminates, then
