WARNING: After any vehicle collision, the front passenger and

rear outboard safety belt systems must be checked by an

authorized dealer to verify that the “automatic locking retractor”

feature for child seats is still functioning properly. In addition, all safety

belts should be checked for proper function.

WARNING: BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE

REPLACED if the safety belt assembly “automatic locking

retractor” feature or any other safety belt function is not operating

properly when checked by an authorized dealer. Failure to replace the

belt and retractor assembly could increase the risk of injury in

collisions.

Energy management feature

• This vehicle has a safety belt system with an energy management

feature at the front outboard seating positions to help further reduce

the risk of injury in the event of a head-on collision.

• The front outboard safety belt systems have a retractor assembly that

is designed to pay out webbing in a controlled manner. This feature is

designed to help reduce the belt force acting on the occupant’s chest.

Safety belt pretensioner

The safety belt pretensioners at the front outboard seating positions are

designed to tighten the safety belts firmly against the occupant’s body

during frontal collisions, and in side collisions and rollovers. This helps

increase the effectiveness of the safety belts. In frontal collisions, the

safety belt pretensioners can be activated alone or, if the collision is of

sufficient severity, together with the front airbags.

The driver and front outboard passenger safety belt system (including

retractors, buckles and height adjusters) must be replaced if the vehicle

is involved in a collision that results in the activation of the safety belt

pretensioners. Refer to the Child restraint and safety belt

maintenance section in this chapter.

WARNING: Failure to replace the safety belt assembly under

the above conditions could result in severe personal injuries in

the event of a collision.
