GENERAL SAFETY

Seat Belts with Pre
– tensioner (if
Equipped)
You can use the pre-tensioner seat belts
in the same manner as ordinary seat
belts .
The seat belt pre-tensioner system
works
in conjunction with the
SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINTS SYSTEM
(SRS-Airbags).
In the collision, pre-tensioner tightens
the seat belt so that it fits the occupant’s
body more safely. When pre-tensioner
activates, there could be some noise
and release of smoke. This is usual and
there are no health hazards or risk of
fire.
WARNING

In a collision, the pre-tensioner
seat belt assembly mechanisms
become hot during activation. Do
not touch the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies for several
minutes after they have been
activated.
If the vehicle has been involved in a
collision, get it inspected immediately at
authorised TATA MOTORS SERVICE
Center.
Seat Belt with Load Limiter (if
Equipped)
You can use the load limiter seat belts in
the same manner as ordinary seat belts.
The seat belt load limiter system works
together with the SUPPLEMENTARY RE-
STRAINTS SYSTEM (SRS-Airbags).
In the collision, load limiter decreases
the load on the rib cage region of the oc-
cupant.
If the vehicle has been involved in a col-
lision, get it inspected immediately at Au-
thorised TATA MOTORS SERVICE Center.
Use of seat belts for pregnant
woman
WARNING

Pregnant women must wear a
correctly positioned seat belt. It is
safer for mother as well as unborn
child.

Pregnant women should wear the
lap part of the seat belt across the
thighs and as snug across the hips
as possible. Keep the seat belt low
so that it does not come across
the abdomen. That way the strong
bones of the hips will take the
force if there is a collision.
