Emergency tensioning device (ETD),
seat belt force limiter
The seat belts for the front and rear outer
seats are equipped with emergency
tensioning devices and belt force limiters.
The ETD is designed to activate in the
following cases:
앫
in frontal or rear-end impacts
exceeding the system deployment
threshold.
앫
if the restraint systems are operational
and functioning correctly, see
1
indicator lamp (
컄
page 58).
When activated, emergency tensioning
devices remove slack from the belts. Belt
force limiters reduce the force exerted by
the seat belts on occupants during a crash.
i
The ETDs for the front seats will only acti-
vate if the respective front seat belt is fastened
(latch plate properly inserted into buckle).
The ETDs for the rear outer seats will activate
with or without the respective seat belt fastened.
Warning!
G
An emergency tensioning device (ETD) that
was activated must be replaced.
When disposing the emergency tensioning
device, our safety instructions must be
followed. These are available at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
