Correctly wearing your seat belt
Adjust the seat back so that you are sitting
up straight with your back against the seat
back.
The seat belt should be neat
The shoulder strap should be close to the
middle of the shoulder, not on the neck and
not on the shoulder.
The lap belt should be as low as possible
over the hips.
⚠ Warning
All occupants in the vehicle must wear their
seat belt correctly while the vehicle is
moving. Otherwise, serious injury or even
death may result during emergency braking
or a collision because the body is not
restrained in a seat.
All passengers should keep their seat belt
fastened at all times, even during a short trip.
Otherwise, there will be a greater risk of
injury and even death in the event of an
accident.
Pretensioner seatbelt
During a collision, the pre-tensioner will
instantaneously tighten the seat belt to provide
the best restraint for the occupant.
The force limiter helps to control the load
applied to the seatbelt, helping to minimize the
impact to the chest.
Operating conditions
Pretensioner seat belts work when the vehicle is
hit in the front by a strong force.
If the vehicle is subjected to one of the
following impacts and the impact force is small,
the seat belt may not deploy:
Frontal collision against a solid wall at a
speed of 25 km/h or less.
Frontal collision with an object with a small
surface area, such as a telephone pole or a
tree, at a speed of 35 km/h or less.
Pretensioner seat belts may not work as
expected when the vehicle experiences one of
the following forceful impacts.
The vehicle has rolled 90º or 180º.
During a side or rear collision.
⚠ Warning
Wear the pretensioner seat belt correctly and
adjust the seat to the optimal position.
Otherwise, the seat belt may not work
properly, which could cause serious injury or
even death.
If you want to install, remove or disassemble
a pretensioner seat belt, contact an
authorized service center. Using a pre-
tensioner seat belt improperly may cause it to
malfunction, which may result in serious
injury or even death in the event of an
accident.
Pretensioner seat belts may not be reused.
After the first collision, the pretensioner
cannot extend or retract for a later collision.
Please contact an authorized service center
for a replacement.
When a pretensioner seat belt deploys, you
will hear a loud explosion and see white
smoke. This will not cause a fire and is
harmless to the human body.
Please contact an authorized service center
to scrap a pretensioner. Because a pretensioner
seat belt that deploys unexpectedly during
scrap can cause injury.
