& Seatbelt with shoulder belt
and lap belt pretensioners
(driver’s side – Australia
models only)
S01AF02
1) Seatbelt retractor assembly (shoulder
belt pretensioner)
2) Lap belt pretensioner
On the driver’s side, the shoulder belt
pretensioner is supplemented by a lap belt
pretensioner, which is located at the base
of the center pillar. Like the shoulder belt
pretensioner, the lap belt pretensioner
instantaneously pulls in the belt to elim-
inate slackness if a certain level of frontal
collision force is detected. As a result, the
belt restrains the driver more effectively.
When a seatbelt pretensioner is activated,
an operating noise will be heard and a
small amount of smoke will be released.
These occurrences are normal and not
harmful. This smoke does not indicate a
fire in the vehicle.
Once the seatbelt pretensioner has been
activated, the seatbelt pretensioner re-
mains locked. Consequently, the seatbelt
cannot be pulled out and retracted and
therefore must be replaced.
NOTE
. Seatbelt pretensioners are not de-
signed to activate in minor frontal
impacts, in side or rear impacts or in
roll-over accidents.
. The driver’s and passenger’s seat-
belt pretensioners and frontal SRS air-
bag operate simultaneously.
. Pretensioners are designed to func-
tion on a one-time-only basis. In the
event that a pretensioner is activated,
we recommend that you have both the
driver’s and front passenger’s seatbelt
retractor assemblies replaced with
genuine SUBARU parts by your
SUBARU dealer.
. If either fr ont seatbe lt does not
retract or cannot be pulled out due to
a malfunction or activatio n of the
pretensioner, we recommend that you
contact your SUBARU dealer as soon
as possible.
. If the front seatbelt assembly or
surrounding area has been damaged,
we recommend that you contact your
SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
. When you sell your vehicle, we urge
you to explain to the buyer that it has
seatbelt pretensioners by alerting the
buyer to the contents of this section.
WARNING
. To obtain maximum protection,
the occupants should sit in an
upright position with their seat-
belts properly fastened. Refer to
“
s01aeSeatbelts” F1-11.
. Do not modify, remove or strike
the front seatbelt assemblies or
surrounding area. This could
result in accidental activation of
Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags 1-21
