The front outside seat belt pretensioner
system consists mainly of the following
components and their locations are shown
in the illustration.
1. Front airbag sensors
2. SRS warning light
3. Seat belt pretensioner assemblies
4. Airbag sensor assembly
The front outside seat belt pretensioners
are controlled by the airbag sensor as-
sembly. The airbag sensor assembly con-
sists of a safing sensor and airbag sen-
sor.
When the front outside seat belt preten-
sioners are activated, an operating noise
may be heard and a small amount of non-
toxic gas may be released. This does not
indicate that a fire is occurring. This gas
is normally harmless.
Once the front outside seat belt preten-
sioners have been activated, the seat belt
retractors remain locked.

semblies, airbag sensor or surround-
