Seat Belt Pretensioner — If Equipped
The front seat belt system may be equipped with preten-
sioning devices that are designed to remove slack from
the seat belt in the event of a collision. These devices may
improve the performance of the seat belt by removing

work for all size occupants, including those in child
restraints.

belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt still must be
worn snugly and positioned properly. The pretensioners are triggered by the Occupant Re-
straint Controller (ORC). Like the air bags, the preten-
sioners are single use items. A deployed pretensioner or
a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.

that is designed to release webbing in a controlled
manner.
