Seat belt use during pregnancy
N00406800134
Seat belts work for everyone, including pregnant women. Like
all occupants, pregnant women are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed in an accident if they do not wear seat belts.
Seat belt pre-tensioner and force limiter
systems
N00417700582
The driver’s and front passenger’s seats each have a seat belt
equipped with a pre-tensioner system.
Pre-tensioner system
The driver and front passenger seat belts are equipped with a
seat belt pre-tensioner system. In a moderate-to-severe frontal
or side collision or when a rollover or overturning of the vehi-
cle is detected, the pre-tensioner system operates simulta-
neously with the deployment of the front airbags, side airbags
or curtain airbags.
The seat belt pre-tensioners are located in the driver’s and front
passenger’s seat belt retractors (A) and in the driver seat’s final
anchor (B). When activated, the pre-tensioners quickly draw
back seat belt webbing and increase seat belt performance.
WARNING
!
● To reduce the risk of serious injury or death to preg-
nant women and unborn children in an accident,
pregnant women should always wear a seat belt. The
lap portion of the seat belt should be worn snug and
low across the hips and below the rounding. Consult
your doctor if you have any additional questions or
concerns.
