WARNING

sioner seat belts in the same manner as
ordinary seat belts.
Read this section and "Supplemental
Restraint System (Airbags)" section to
learn more about the pretensioner system.
The seat belt pretensioner system works
with the supplemental restraint system (air-
bags). The crash sensors and the elec-
tronic controller of the airbag system also
control the seat belt pretensioners. The
pretensioners are triggered only when
there is a frontal or side collision severe
enough to trigger the airbags and the seat
belts are fastened. For precautions and
general information including servicing the
pretensioner system, refer to "Supplemen-
tal Restraint System (Airbags)" section in
addition to this "Seat Belt Pretensioner
system" section, and follow all those pre-
cautions.
The pretensioner is located in each front
seat belt retractor. The pretensioner tight-
ens the seat belt so the belt fits the occu-
pant's body more snugly in the event of a
frontal or side collision. The retractors will
remain locked after the pretensioners are
activated. Upon activation, some noise will
occur and some smoke may be released.
These conditions are not harmful and do
not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
The driver and all passengers must be
properly restrained by fastening seat belts
at all times, whether or not a pretensioner
is equipped at their seating position, to
