braking, when the car accelerates, when driving

downhill and when cornering.

denly, have the retractor checked by a specialist

garage.

Belt tensioners

The safety of the driver and front passenger wearing

their seat belts is enhanced by belt tensioners.

During a collision of certain force, the seat belt is

tightened by the belt tensioner to prevent unwanted

body movement.

The belt tensioner can also be deployed when the

seat belt is not fastened.
