Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/Front seatbelt pretensioners
& Seatbelt with shoulder belt
and lap belt pretensioners
NOTE
This section is applicable to the front
passengers seatbelt in XV CROSS-
TREK models.
1) Seatbelt retractor assembly (should er
belt pretensioner)
2) Lap belt pretensioner
On the front passenger ssideinXV
CROSSTREK models, the shoulder belt
pretensioner is supplemented by a lap belt
pretensioner, which is located at the base
of the center pillar. Like the shoulder belt
pretensione r, the lap belt pretensioner
instantaneously pulls in the belt to elim-
inate slack if a certain level of frontal
collision force is detected. As a result, the
seatbelt restrains the front seat occupant
more effectively.
When a seatbelt pretensioner is activated,
an operating noise will be heard and a
small amount of smoke will be released.
These occurrences are normal and not
harmful. This smoke does not indicate a
fire in the vehicle.
Once the seatbelt pretensioner has been
activated, the seatbelt pretensioner re-
mains locked. Consequently, the seatbelt
cannot be pulled out and retracted and
therefore must be replaced.
NOTE
. Seatbelt pretensioners are not de-
signed to activate in minor impacts or
in rear impacts.
. When a rollover accident occurs, the
lap belt pretensioner does not activate;
however, as the curtain airbags deploy,
the shoulder belt pretensioner is acti-
vated. At this time, the drivers side
seatbelt pretensioner and passengers
side shoulder belt pretensioner acti-
vate simultaneously.
. In cases of frontal collisions, the
following components will operate si-
multaneously.
