Before a door is closed, be sure the
safety belt is out of the way. If a
door is slammed against a safety

safety belt and the vehicle.
Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has safety belt
pretensioners for the 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 or
near frontal crash if the threshold
conditions for pretensioner
activation are met. And, if the
vehicle has side impact airbags,
safety belt pretensioners can help
tighten the safety belts in a side
crash.
Pretensioners work only once.
If the pretensioners are activated
in a crash, the pretensioners and
possibly other parts of the safety
belt system will need to be replaced.
