Three-stage safety system Comprising:
zthree-point seat belts,
z belt tensioners at the front seats,
z airbag systems for the driver and front
passenger seats 3 as well as the
outboard rear seats 3.
The three stages are activated in sequence
depending on the severity of the accident:
z The automatic seat belt locking devices
prevent the belt strap from being pulled
out and thus ensure that the vehicle
occupants are retained in their seats.
z The front seat belts are pulled down at
the belt buckles. This means the belts fit
snugly, the occupants are decelerated
early with the vehicle and the body
loading is reduced.
z The airbag systems are also triggered in
the event of severe accidents and form a
safety cushion for the occupants. Read the instructions supplied with the
child restraint system
Picture no: 18531s.tif
Three-point seat belts The seat belts have an automatic retractor,
so that the belt is spring tensioned and
always lies against the body.
Information on correct seat position
345.
The safety belts lock when the vehicle
accelerates or decelerates rapidly. This
prevents the belt from extending and
keeps the occupant in his or her seat.
9 Warning
The airbag systems serve to supplement
the three-point seat belts and belt
tensioners. The seat belts must therefore
always be worn. Disregard of these
instructions may lead to injuries or
endanger life. Vehicle passengers
should be informed accordingly.
