Pre-tensioner system
The driver and front passenger seat belts are equipped with a
seat belt pre-tensioner system. In moderate-to-severe frontal
collisions, this system operates simultaneously with the
deployment of the front air bags.
The seat belt pre-tensioners are located within the seat belt
retractors (A). When activated, the pre-tensioners quickly draw
back seat belt webbing and increase seat belt performance.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system includes the following com-
ponents:
The air bag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON”
or “START” position. These include all of the items listed
above and all related wiring.
The pre-tensioner seat belts will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
