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.
1) Seatbelt retractor assembly (should er
belt pretensioner)
2) Lap belt pretensioner
On the f ront passenger s side, the
shoulder belt pretensioner is supplemen-
ted 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 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.
Seatbelt pretensioner for driver
Seatbelt pretensioner for front
passenger
SRS frontal airbag for driver
SRS frontal airbag for front pas-
senger*
SRS curtain airbags (both sides)
(if an offset frontal collision occurs)
*: This does not operate if the occupant
detection system deactivates airbag op-
eration. For details, refer to Front
passengers SRS frontal airbag F1-46
.
. In cases of side collisions, the
following components will operate si-
multaneously.
SRS curtain airbag (impacted
side)
SRS side airbag (impacted side)
(when any of the center pillar im-
pact sensors/front door impact sen-
sors sense an impact force)
Seatbelt pretensioner for driver
(when the drivers side front door
impact sensor sense a n impact
force)
Seatbelt pretensioner for front
passenger (shoulder belt preten-
sioner only) (when the front pas-
senger s side front door i mpact
sensor sense an impact force)
. Pretensioners are designed to func-
tion on a one-time-only basis. In the
event that a pretensioner is activated,
both the drivers and front passengers
seatbelt retractor assemblies should
be replaced only by an authorized
SUBARU dealer. When replacing seat-
