& Safety tips
. Pretensioners are designed to function
on a one-time-only basis. If a pretensioner
is activated, have both front seatbelt
retractor assemblies replaced only by an
authorized SUBARU dealer. When repla-
cing seatbelt retractor assemblies, use
only genuine SUBARU parts.
. If either front seatbelt does not retract or
cannot be pulled out due to a malfunction
or activation of the pretensioner, contact
your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
. If the front seatbelt retractor assembly
or surrounding area has been damaged,
contact your SUBARU dealer as soon as
possible.
. When you sell your vehicle, we urge
you to inform the buyer that the vehicle is
equipped with seatbelt pretensioners.
Also, notify the buyer of the contents of
this section.
& System monitors
A diagnostic system continually monitors
the readiness of the seatbelt pretensioner
with the ignition switch in the ON position.
The seatbelt pretensioners share the
control module with the SRS airbag
system. Therefore, if any malfunction
occurs in a seatbelt pretensioner, the
SRS airbag system warning light will
illuminate. For details, refer to SRS airbag
system monitors F1-62.
& System servicing
WARNING
. When discarding a seatbelt re-
tractor assembly or scrapping
the entire vehicle damaged by a
collision, consult your SUBARU
dealer.
. Tampering with or disconnecting
the systems wiring could result
in accidental activation of the
seatbelt pretensioner and/or
SRS airbag or could make the
system inoperative, which may
result in serious injury. Do not
use electrical test equipment on
any circuit related to the seatbelt
pretensioner and SRS airbag sys-
tems. For required servicing of
the seatbelt pretensioner, con-
sult your nearest SUBARU deal-
er.
CAUTION
The sensors and SRS airbag control
modules are located in the following
locations.
. Front sub sensors: on both the
right and left side at the front of
the vehicle
. Front door impact sensors: on
both front doors
. Satellite safing sensor: under the
rear center seat
. Si de airbag sensors: on both
center pillars
. Curtain airbag sensors: on both
rear wheel houses
. SRS airbag control module (in-
cluding the impact sensors): un-
der the center of the instrument
panel
If you need service or repair in those
areas or near the front seatbelt
retractors, have the work performed
by your authorized SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
If the front or side part of the vehicle is
damaged in an accident to the extent
that the seatbelt pretensioner does not
operate, contact your SUBARU dealer
as soon as possible.
