are
equipped with pretensioner and load
limiting systems. For both these
systems to work properly you must
wear the seat belt properly.
Pretensioners:
When a collision is detected, the
pretensioners deploy simultaneously
with the air bags.
The pretensioners deploy
simultaneously with the air bags when
a roll-over is also detected.
For deployment details, refer to the
SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria (page
2-62).
The seat belt retractors remove slack
quickly as the air bags are expanding.
Any time the air bags and seat belt
pretensioners have fired they must be
replaced.
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Air Bag/Seat Belt Pretensioner
System Warning Indication/Warning
Light on page 7-39.
In addition, the pretensioner system
for the front passenger, like the front
and side passenger air bag, is designed
to only deploy when the front
passenger air bag deactivation switch
is turned to the ON position.
