The Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt System
consists mainly of the following com-
ponents. Their locations are shown in
the illustration above:
1. SRS air bag warning light
2. Retractor pre-tensioner assembly
3. SRS control module
4. Emergency fastening device (EFD)
✽ ✽NOTICE
The sensor that activates the SRS
air bag is connected with the
pre–tensioner seat belts. The SRS
air bag warning light on the instru-
ment panel will illuminate for
approximately 6 seconds after the
Engine Start/Stop button is pressed
to the ON position, and then it
should turn off.
If the pre-tensioner is not working
properly, the warning light will illu-
minate even if the SRS air bag is not
malfunctioning. If the warning light
does not illuminate, stays illuminat-
ed or illuminates when the vehicle is
being driven, have an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded prod-
ucts inspect the pre-tensioner seat
belts and SRS air bags as soon as
possible.

Do not touch the pre-tensioner
seat belt (Retractor pre-tension-

several minutes after they have
been activated. When the pre-
tensioner seat belt (Retractor
pre-tensioner seat belt and
emergency fastening device)
mechanism deploy during a col-
lision, the pre-tensioner
becomes hot and can burn you.
WARNING
Body work on the front area of
the vehicle may damage the pre-
tensioner seat belt (Retractor
pre-tensioner seat belt and
emergency fastening device)
system. Therefore, we recom-
mend that the system be serv-
iced by an authorized retailer of
