Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/Front seatbelt pretensioners
WARNING
. To obtain maximum protection,
the occupants should sit in an
upright position with their seat-
belts properly fastened. Refer to
Seatbelts F1-11.
. Do not modify, remove or strike
the front seatbelt retractor as-
semblies or surrounding area.
This could result in accidental
activation of the seatbelt preten-
sioners or could make the sys-
tem inoperative, possibly result-
ing in serious injury. Seatbelt
pretensioners have no user-ser-
viceable parts. For required ser-
vicing of front seatbelt retractors
equipped with seatbelt preten-
sioners, consult your SUBARU
dealer.
. When discarding front seatbelt
retractor assemblies or scrap-
ping the entire vehicle due to
collision damage or for other
reasons, consult your SUBARU
dealer.
& Seatbelt with shoulder belt
and lap belt pretensioners
NOTE
This section is applicable to the front
passengers seatbelt in Crosstrek mod-
els.
1) Seatbelt retractor assembly (shoulder
belt pretensioner)
2) Lap belt pretensioner
On the front passengers side in 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 pretensioner,
the lap belt pretensioner instantaneously
pulls in the belt to eliminate slack if a
certain level of frontal collision force is
detected. As a result, the seatbelt re-
strains 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.
