✽ NOTICE
The pre-tensioner seat belt is installed at
the front seats, and the sensor is
equipped inside the buckle, where pres-
ence of passenger is sensed by the fas-
tening of the seat belts. Therefore, pre-
tensioner will not activate if the passen-
ger is not fastened with the seat belts.
Likewise, it will activate if buckled even
without a passenger in the seat. Pre-ten-
sioner seat belt is designed to activate
when the seatbelt is in use. To ensure the
pretensioner seatbelts activate in event
of a possible seatbelt buckle switch mal-
function, the system is designed to acti-
vate regardless of whether a seat belt is
in use or if no seat belt use is detected
within 6 seconds of turning the ignition
switch ON.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.
(1) SRS air bag warning light
(2) Seatbelt pre-tensioner assembly
(3) SRS air bag control module

To obtain maximum benefit from a

rectly.
• The safety belt must be adjusted
to the correct position.
