1. Route the seat belt webbing through
the rear seat belt guides. It will help
keep the belts from being trapped
behind or under the seats.
2. After inserting the seat belt, tighten
the belt webbing by pulling it up.
CAUTION
When pulling out to wear the seat belt,
the tongue should be slowly pulled out
of the seat belt guide so that the seat
belt guide does not come off the trim.
Pre-tensioner seat belt
OON038092NR
Your vehicle is equipped with driver's
and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat
belts.
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to
make sure that the seat belts fit tightly
against the occupant's body in certain
collisions.
The pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in crashes where the collision
is severe enough.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if
the occupant tries to lean forward too
quickly, the seat belt retractor will lock
into position. In certain frontal collisions,
the pre-tensioner will activate and pull
the seat belt into tighter contact against
the occupant's body.
If the system senses excessive tension
on the driver or passenger's seat belt
when the pre-tensioner system acti-
vates, the load limiter inside the retractor
pre-tensioner will release some of the
pressure on the affected seat belt.
WARNING
For your safety, be sure that the belt
webbing is not loose or twisted and
always sit properly on your seat.
