Seat belts

Three- sta ge restr aint system
The sy stem comprises:
z Three-point seat b elts.
z Belt tensioners, with load lim iters, on the
front seats.
z Airb ag systems for driver, front
passeng er and rear outboard seat
occupants.
The three stages are activa ted in sequenc e
depending on the seriousness of the
acc id ent:
z The automatic sea t belt lock ing dev ic es
prevent the belt strap from being pulled
out and thus ensure that the vehicle
occupants are reta ined in their sea ts.
z The front seat belt buckles are pulled
downwards. As a result, the seat belts
are instantaneously tightened and the
occupants are mad e aw are of the
deceleration of the v ehicle at a very early
stage. This reduces stress placed on the
body.
