devices, allowing freedom of body

a constant speed, although the
spring-tensioned belts are always a
snug fit.
The belt has a “vehicle sensitive
retractor” which is designed to lock
during heavy acceleration or
deceleration in any direction.

only suitable for children aged up to
12 years or smaller than 150 cm if

restraint 3.
Belt force limiters
Load limiters on the front seats
reduce the impact on the seat
occupant’s body from a tensioning
belt, in the event of frontal collisions
or rear impacts of a certain severity.
The belt force is controlled, to reduce
the risk of belt-inflicted injury.
Belt tensioners
The seat belt systems on the front
seats incorporate belt tensioners
housed in the belt buckles and seat
belt retractors.
In the event of frontal collisions or
rear impacts of a certain severity, belt
buckles and seat belt retractors
tighten the seat belts; the shoulder
and lap belts are instantaneously
tightened to fit the occupant’s body
more snugly.The belt tensioners actuate only once
and must be replaced after activation.

vehicle type and other objects must
not be fixed or placed within the
action zone of the belt tensioners,
as they may result in injury if the
belt tensioners are triggered.

in urban traffic and when you are
a rear seat passenger. It can save
your life!
