Range Rover: Seat belt pre-tensioners - Occupant safety - Range Rover Owner's ManualRange Rover: Seat belt pre-tensioners

The seat belt pre-tensioners activate in conjunction with the Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) to provide additional protection in the event of a severe frontal impact. They automatically reduce any slack in a seatbelt to reduce forward movement of a front seat occupant.

WARNING WARNING

The seat belt pre-tensioners will activate only once and then must be replaced. Failure to replace them will reduce the effectiveness of the SRS in reducing the risk of serious injury or death in the event of an accident.

WARNING WARNING

After any impact, have the seat belts and pre-tensioners checked and, if necessary, replaced by a Dealer/Authorized Repairer.
