page 55 and in-
clude the following important functions:
Automatic belt retractor
The seat belts on the front seats and on the
rear seats (depending on equipment) are
fitted with a belt retractor on the shoulder
section of belt. Full freedom of movement
is made possible when the shoulder belt is
pulled slowly or when the vehicle is travel-
ling at normal speeds. However, if the belt
is pulled out quickly or during sudden brak-
ing, during travel in mountains or bends and
during acceleration, the automatic belt re-
tractor is locked.
Belt tensioners
Depending on the equipment, the following
seat belts are equipped with belt tension-
ers:
— Front seats.
— Outer seats in the second row of seats.
The belt tensioners are activated by sen-
sors during severe frontal, side and rear col-
lisions. They tighten the seat belts against
the direction in which they are pulled.
A loose seat belt is retracted and kept
taught, which can reduce the forward mo-
tion of the vehicle occupants and their mo-
tion in the direction of impact. Depending
on the equipment, the belt tensioner works
together with the airbag system.
A
fine dust may be produced when the air-
bags are triggered. This is quite normal and
does not mean that there is a
fire in the ve-
hicle.
WARNING
The protective function of the belt ten-
sioners permits only one activation of the
belt tensioners. The system must be re-
placed if the belt tensioners have been
triggered.
