Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/Front seatbelt pretensioners
Front seatbelt pretensioners
The drivers and front passengers seat-
belts have a seatbelt pretensioner. The
seatbelt pretensioners are designed to be
activated in the event of an accident
involving a moderate to severe frontal
and side collision and rollover accident.
& Seatbelt with shoulder belt
pretensioner
NOTE
This section is applicable to the follow-
ing components.
. Except XV CROSSTREK models:
Drivers seatbelt
Front passengers seatbelt
. XV CROSSTREK models:
Drivers seatbelt
The pretensioner sensor also serves as
follows.
. SRS frontal airbag sensor
. Side impact sensor
If the sensor detects a certain predeter-
mined amount of force during frontal or
side collisions or rollover accidents, the
front seatbelt is quickly drawn back in by
the retractor to take up the slack so that
the belt more effectively restrains the
driver.
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 retractor remains
locked. Consequently, the seatbelt can not
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.
. In the case of rollover accidents
XV CROSSTREK models:
As the curtain airbags deploy, the
drivers side seatbelt pretensioner
and front passenger sside
shoulder belt pretensioner are acti-
vated simultaneously.
Except XV CROSSTREK models:

vated.
. In cases of frontal collisions, the

multaneously.
