Automatic Seat Belt Tensioners

For added protection, the front seat

belts are equipped with automatic

seat belt tensioners. When activated,

the tensioners immediately tighten

the belts to help hold the driver and a

front passenger in position.

The tensioners are designed to

activate in any collision severe

enough to cause the front airbags to

deploy.

If a side curtain airbag deploys

during a side impact, the tensioner

on that side of the vehicle will also

deploy.

The tensioners can also be activated

during a collision in which the front

airbags

do not deploy

. In this case, the

airbags would not be needed, but the

extra tension in the seat belt could be

helpful.

When the tensioners are activated,

the seat belts will remain tight until

they are unbuckled.

Seat Belt Maintenance

For safety, you should check the

condition of your seat belts regularly.

Pull each belt out fully, and look for

frays, cuts, burns, and wear. Check

that the latches work smoothly and

the belts retract easily. If a belt does

not retract easily, cleaning the belt

may correct the problem (see page

267). Any belt that is not in good

condition or working properly will

not provide good protection and

should be replaced as soon as

possible.

Honda provides a limited warranty

on seat belts. See your

Honda

Warranty Information

booklet for

details.
