FRONT SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERFront Seatbelts and Pre-tensioners
The front seatbelts are of the inertia reel type with
integral pre-tensioners and torsion bar load
limiters fitted to the reel assemblies. The lower
anchorage and buckle strap are mounted on the
moving seat slides to maintain optimum belt
geometry. The shoulder anchorage is fixed to the B
post via a four position height adjuster. An
automatic locking retractor (ALR) is incorporated
in the passenger belt reel assembly to provide
child seat security.
A compact type of pre-tensioner is fitted to the
front seatbelt reel assemblies. The reduced size is
achieved by the use of rack and pinion gearing to
retract the seatbelt reel when the unit is fired.
The initiator is a conventional pyrotechnic device
which is electrically triggered from the Restraints
Control Module (RCM).
Fault diagnosis of the pre-tensioner firing circuits
is carried out by the RCM and the presence of a
fault is indicated by the airbag warning lamp (see
Diagnostics).
The pre-tensioner is an integral part of the seatbelt
assembly and is not serviceable. Normal safety
procedures applicable to the handling of
pyrotechnic devices must be followed.
Note that plastic belt guides are fitted to the B
posts: if the pre-tensioners are fired, these guides
will fracture.
Rear Seatbelts
All three rear seatbelts are of the inertia reel type
with child seat automatic locking retractors.
The two outboard retractor assemblies are
mounted on the rear quarter panels. The centre
retractor is reverse wound and mounted in a
recess on the rear parcel shelf.
