Seats, restraints39Seat belts
The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle holding the occupants in
the sitting position. Therefore the risk
of injury is considerably reduced.

In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger their fellow occupants and
themselves.

Periodically check all parts of the belt
system for damage and proper
functionality.

replaced. After an accident, have the
belts and triggered belt pretensioners replaced by a workshop.
Note
Make sure that the belts are not
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged
objects or trapped. Prevent dirt from
getting into the belt retractors.

Belt force limiters

the belt during a collision.
Belt pretensionersIn the event of a head-on or rear-end
collision of a certain severity, the front
seat belts are tightened.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.

pretensioners can only be triggered
once.
