Proactive occupant protection system -> Functions of the proactive occupant protection system for Your Volkswagen Polo SUV Seventh Generation (2021-2025)

Basic functions  
The following functions may be triggered individually or together in critical driving situations, e.g. in the event of emergency braking,  
understeer and oversteer or minor collisions:  
Reversible belt tensioning of the fastened driver and front passenger seat belts.  
Automatic closing of the glass roof and side windows down to a gap, depending on the vehicle equipment.  
The belts may be tensioned individually or together depending on the respective critical driving situations.  
Additional functions for vehicles with Automatic Emergency Braking (Front Assist)  
For vehicles with Automatic Emergency Braking (Front Assist), the system limits also include calculation of the probability of a rear-end  
collision with the vehicle in front. If the system detects that a rear-end collision is likely, or initiates severe braking, it can trigger the  
proactive occupant protection system.  
Setting in driving profile selection  
In vehicles with driving profile selection, the proactive occupant protection system is adapted to the special vehicle setup of the  
respective driving profile.
