Your ‘TATA SAFARI’ has three point inertia reel type front and rear seat
belts in the out board positions and a lap belt for middle passenger
on rear seat. In normal driving the belt lets you move freely in your
seat. In case of an accident or sudden braking inertia reel automatically
tightens the belt to help restrain your body.
The anchor end of the shoulder belt is adjustable to suit the height of
the passenger wearing it. The lap belt has one manually adjusted belt
that fits across the hip bone. It is similar to safety belt used in
aeroplanes.
Make sure that your seat is adjusted to a good driving position and
the back of the seat is upright.
1. Pull the tongue across your body and insert it into the buckle.
2. Check and ensure that the belt is not twisted.
3. Position the lap portion of the belt as low as possible across your
hip bone.
4. Pull up the shoulder part of the belt to remove the slack. Make
sure that the belt goes over your collar bones and across chest.
5. To unlatch the belt, press the red button on the buckle. Guide the
belt to the pillar as it retracts.

ORS strongly urges that the driver and passengers
in the vehicle be properly restrained at all times with the
seat-belts. Failure to do so could increase the chance of injury
and / or the severity of injury in accidents.
Baby or Small Child : Baby or Small Child :Baby or Small Child : Baby or Small Child :
Baby or Small Child :
Use child restraint system appropriate for the child until the
child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s
seat-belts.
If a child is too large for a child restraint system, the child should
sit in the seat and must be restrained using the vehicle’s
seat-belt.
Also use the seat-belt while the child is in the rear seat. According
to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained
in the rear seat than in the front seat.
Child restraint systems are available.

Collapsible Steering Column Collapsible Steering ColumnCollapsible Steering Column Collapsible Steering Column
Collapsible Steering Column
The steering column of TATA SAFARI is of collapsible type. During
normal operation it works as a solid one piece column and
takes all the steering efforts effectively. In case of frontal impact,
the intermediate tube connecting upper and lower part of the
column will collapse. This will prevent the steering column from
protruding in the driver cabin and avoid injury to the driver.

SRS (Supplementary Restraint System)
Your vehicle is fitted with an air bag for the driver, located in the steering
wheel, and a passenger air bag (if fitted) is located above the glove box
compartment. Airbag(s) can be identified by the “SRS AIR BAG” label on
the airbag cover.
The airbag is a supplementary restraint system and is designed to provide
effective protection to the belted occupants during frontal collisions.
The air bag system is not visible until it is activated. The activation depends
upon the severity and direction of frontal collisions. Airbags are not
designed to activate in rollover, rear and side collisions.
Operation OperationOperation Operation
Operation
Sensors in the ECU detect the frontal collision severity. The air bag(s) are
designed to deploy only if the collision matches the criteria for
deployment.
• •• •
• The sensor switches close the circuit and the propellant rapidly burns
in a container producing gases, which fill the airbag.
• •• •
• The inflating airbag deploys out of the steering wheel in the front of
the driver and passenger air bag (if fitted) deploys out of the dashboard
in front of the passenger. This action takes place in a fraction of a
second.

The importance of being properly seated :
In a collision, the airbag inflates extremely quickly, faster than
blink of an eye and with great force.
• •• •
•If you are too close to an inflating air bag, it could seriously
injure you. Move your seat as far back as possible to allow
room for air bag inflation. Never install any child restraint in
the front seat where the passenger air bag is fitted, as serious
injury or death may result from the force of the inflating
front passenger air bag. The rear seat is safest place for the
children.
• •• •
•Never place any object in front of you while you are seated
in the front seat as it may result an injury from the object
when it is forced towards you by the inflating air bag. Do not
cover the steering wheel or instrument panel with an object
which may prevent the proper deployment of the air bag.
• •• •
•Where a passenger air bag is fitted, front passenger should
never sit on the edge of the seat, stand near the glove box
compartment, rest feet or other parts of the body on the
dash board or lean over near the glove compartment when
the vehicle is moving.
Passenger should also not recline the
seat backwards such that the passenger goes beyond the
protection range of airbags.
• •• •
• The bag(s) deflate as the gas escapes through the vent holes
in the airbag cushion.
