any other safety belt function is not operating properly. In addition, all
safety belts should be checked for proper function. Failure to replace

Safety belt pretensioner

Your vehicle is equipped with safety belt pretensioners at the driver and
right front passenger seating positions.
The safety belt pretensioner tightens the safety belts firmly against the
occupant's body at the start of the crash.
When the optional Safety Canopy
and/or the front airbags are activated, the safety belt pretensioners for
the driver and right front passenger seating positions will be activated
when the respective seatbelt is properly buckled.
The driver and front passenger safety belt system (including
retractors, buckles and height adjusters) must be replaced if the
vehicle is involved in a collision that results in deployment of front
airbags, seat-mounted side airbags and Safety Canopy
and safety belt pretensioners.
Refer to the Safety belt maintenance section in this chapter.
