Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has safety belt
pretensioners for front outboard
occupants. Although the safety
belt pretensioners cannot be seen,
they are part of the safety belt
assembly. They can help tighten the
safety belts during the early stages
of a moderate to severe frontal and
near frontal crash and will deploy in
side, rear and rollover events if the
threshold conditions for pretensioner
activation are met.
Pretensioners work only once.
If the pretensioners activate in a
crash, they will need to be replaced,
and probably other new parts for
the vehicle's safety belt system.
See Replacing Safety Belt System
Parts After a Crash on page 3‑29.
Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides
This vehicle may have rear
shoulder belt comfort guides for
the outboard passenger positions
in the rear seat. If not, they are
available through your dealer.
The guides may provide added
safety belt comfort for older
children who have outgrown
booster seats and for some adults.
When installed on a shoulder belt,
and properly adjusted, the comfort
guide positions the belt away from
the neck and head.
Here is how to install a comfort
guide to the safety belt:
1. Remove the guide from its
storage pocket on the side of
the seat.
2. Place the guide over the belt,
and insert the two edges of the
belt into the slots of the guide.
