The e-pretensioners do not activate
when the seat belts are not worn or
when the vehicle stability assist
(VSA) off indicator on the
instrument panel is on.
For added safety, the front seat belts
are equipped with e-pretensioners
that work in combination with the
collision mitigation brake system
(CMBS) (see page ) and the
brake pedal assist function (see page
). If
your vehicle gets too close to the
vehicle ahead of it in your lane, the
driver’s e-pretensioner slightly
retracts the seat belt to alert the
driver of the approaching vehicle. If
a collision with the vehicle in front of
you is likely, the e-pretensioners on
both front seats retract the seat belts
with enough force to properly
restrain you and your front
passenger. After they activate, the
e-pretensioners release the retracted
seat belts.
To get the full benefit of the
e-pretensioners, you and your front
passenger must sit normally in your
seats and wear your seat belts
properly (see page ). In
addition, the front passenger’s
e-pretensioner does not activate
when the passenger’s airbag is
automatically turned off because the
weight sensor detects a child in the
front passenger’s seat.
If
the automatic seat belt tensioners
are activated by a collision, both
front seat belts and all related
components must be
replaced (see page ). If only the
e-pretensioners were activated, no
components need to be replaced.
