WARNING
- When discarding a seatbelt retractor
assembly or scrapping
the entire vehicle damaged by a
collision, consult your SUBARU
dealer.
- Tampering with or disconnecting
the system’s wiring could result
in accidental activation of the
seatbelt pretensioner and/or
SRS airbag or could make the
system inoperative, which may
result in serious injury. Do not
use electrical test equipment on
any circuit related to the seatbelt
pretensioner and SRS airbag systems.
For required servicing of
the seatbelt pretensioner, consult
your nearest SUBARU dealer.

damaged in an accident to the extent
that the seatbelt pretensioner does not
