Belt tensioner*
Safety for the
belted-in
driver and front
passenger is increased by the belt ten-
sioners fitted to the inertia reels of the
front 3 point seatbelts to supplement the
Airbag.
The system is activated in a serious head
on collision by sensors which fire a
pyrotechnic charge in both automatic
tightening devices.
This makes the devices roll up and tighten
the tensioners.
Warning
•
Any repair work on the tensioner
system, or the removal or installa-
tion of system components for
other repair works, should be car-
ried out by a Technical Service
Centre.
•
The protective function of the
belt tensioner is capable of oper-
ating only once. If the belt ten-
sioners have been activated at any
time, the system must be rene-
wed.
•
If you sell the vehicle, please
pass on this Manual to the new
owner.
Notes
•
Smoke is released when the tensioners
are activated. This smoke does not indi-
cate a fire in the vehicle.
•
It is extremely important to observe all
safety regulations when the vehicle or any
of the system components are scrapped.
Technical Service Centres are familiar with
these regulations and can provide the
necessary details.
