NOTE
This section is applicable to the following
components.
Rear passenger’s seatbelt (windowside)
The pretensioner sensor also serves as
follows.
SRS frontal airbag sensor
Side impact sensor
Rollover sensor
If the sensor detects a certain predetermined
amount of force during frontal or
side collisions or rollover accidents, any
seatbelt that has a seatbelt pretensioner is
quickly drawn back in by the retractor to
take up the slack so that the belt more
effectively restrains the seat occupant...
Before entering the vehicle, remove any
snow or ice from your shoes because that
could make the pedals slippery and driving
dangerous.
While warming up the vehicle before
driving, check that the accelerator pedal,
brake pedal, and all other controls operate
smoothly...
