Emergency locking retractor (ELR)

WARNING
Adjustable shoulder anchor
Always make sure the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of your
shoulder. The belt should be kept
away from your neck, but not falling
off your shoulder. Failure to do so
could reduce the amount of protection
in an accident and cause death or
serious injuries in the event of a sud-
den stop, sudden swerve or accident.
Seat belt pretensioners
(front seats and outboard
rear seats
The pretensioners help the seat
belts to quickly restrain the occu-
pants by retracting the seat belts
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal or
side collision.
The pretensioners do not activate in the
event of a minor frontal impact, a minor
side impact, a rear impact or a vehicle
rollover.
