damaged by shoes or sharp-edged
objects or trapped. Prevent dirt from
getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Each seat is equipped with a seat belt
reminder, indicated by a control
indicator X for the respective seat in
the roof console 3 104.

Stress on the body is reduced by the
gradual release of the belt during a
collision.Belt pretensioners
In the event of a head-on, rear-end or
side-on collision of a certain severity,
the front and rear seat belts are
tightened. The front seat belts are
tightened by two pretensioners per
