BMW active seat
*
Safety belt tensioner
able, resulting in an improved flow of
blood to the vertebral discs and the
muscles in the area of the spinal
column. Vehicle occupants can experi-
ence less muscle cramping, back pain
in the spine's lumbar region and fatigue.
The active seat thus provides a signifi-
cant contribution to your driving com-
fort and safety.
The safety belt tensioner responds to
severe frontal collisions by tightening
the belts to ensure that occupants
remain firmly positioned in their seats.
A gas-pressure system retracts the
buckle assembly to tension the shoul-
der and lap belts within fractions of a
second. This reduces the tendency to
slide under the lap belt.
