Seatbelts

• retractor and anchor pretensioner at the front outboard seating positions • belt tension sensor at the front outboard passenger seating position

FASTENING THE SEATBELTS The front outboard and rear safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts.

E71880 • safety belt warning light and chime

E67017 • crash sensors and monitoring system with readiness indicator. The safety belt pretensioners are designed to activate in frontal, near-frontal and side crashes, and in rollovers. The safety belt pretensioners on the retractor and anchor at the front seating positions are designed to tighten the safety belts firmly against the occupant's body when activated. This helps increase the effectiveness of the safety belts. In frontal crashes, the safety belt pretensioners can be activated alone or, if the crash is of sufficient severity, together with the front airbags.
