Safety Belt Pretensioners

SAFETY BELT USE DURING

PREGNANCY

The vehicle has safety belt pretensioners

for the front outboard occupants.

Although the safety belt pretensioners

cannot be seen, they are part of the safety

belt assembly. They can help tighten the

safety belts during a severe frontal crash,

and side and rear impacts if the threshold

conditions for pretensioner activation

are met. Pretensioners are not designed

to activate in a minor frontal crash.

Pretensioners are designed to activate in

a moderate to severe rear crash.

Pretensioners work only once. If the

pretensioners activate in a crash, the

pretensioners and probably other new

parts for the vehicle’s safety belt system

will need to be replaced. See Replacing

Safety Belt System Parts after a Crash

on page 2-21.

Safety belts work for everyone, including

pregnant women. Like all occupants,

they are more likely to be seriously

injured if they do not wear safety belts.

A pregnant woman should wear a lap-

shoulder belt, and the lap portion

should be worn as low as possible,

across the pelvis to prevent pressure on

the abdomen.

Seats and Restraints 2-19

Squeeze the release buttons (A) toge-

ther and move the height adjuster up or

down to the desired position.

After the adjuster is set to the desired

position, try to move it up or down

without squeezing the release buttons

to make sure it has locked into position.
