Seat belt pretensioner and load limiter *
The seat belt pretensioner and load limiter can
reduce the pressure of the seat belt on the
chest of the driver or passenger and improve
the protection performance.
-
Before the collision, the seat belt
pretensioner and load limiter can restrain
the driver or passenger and enable him or
her to maintain a correct sitting posture to
prevent the body from leaning forward.
- In the event of a severe collision where
the triggering condition is reached, the
seat belt pretensioner and load limiter will
be triggered, driving the seat belt webbing
to be quickly retracted and tensioned.
- When a vehicle collision occurs, the
human body will move forward, and the
seat belt load limiter will be activated at
this time, so that the restraint force of
the seat belt on the human body will be
within a certain range, preventing the
occupant from being further injured due
to excessive force. And at the same time,
the seat belt pretensioner and load limiter
will work with the airbag to achieve a
better safety protection performance.
NOTE
● When the seat belt pretensioner and
load limiter is activated, a little harmless
smoke together with a sound will be
produced, which is normal.
● The seat belt pretensioner and load
limiter cannot be used any more if
deployed,
and in this case, the SRS
indicator lamp stays on, please go to the
GAC Motor authorized shop for repair in
time.
