Applies to vehicles:Seat belt height adjustment
Seat belt height adjusters can be used to adjust the height
of the shoulder portion of the seat belt.– Take hold of the guide fitting and slide it up ⇒ fig. 212 ,
or
– Compress the adjuster and slide the guide fitting
downwards .
– After adjusting, pull the shoulder belt sharply to check that the catch on the guide fitting is engaged securely.
Note•
The shoulder portion of the seat belt must be positioned roughly
midway over the shoulder – it must never rest against the neck
⇒ in “Adjusting the seat belts” on page 197.
•
It is also possible to adjust the he ight of the front seats to obtain
the best position for the front seat belts.
Taking off the seat belts
The red button releases the belt from the buckle.– Press the red button in the seat belt buckle ⇒fig. 213.
The latch plate will spring out of the buckle.
– Guide the belt back by hand so that it is taken up by the retractor.Belt tensionersHow the belt tensioners work
The seat belts for the driver and front passenger are
equipped with belt tensioners.The seat belts on the front seats are tensioned automatically in
frontal, side and rear-end impacts above a certain degree of
severity. This helps to reduce the forward motion of the occupants.
In a less severe accident, or in the event of a roll-over, the belt
tensioners are not activated.
