The front seat belts are pre-tensioned.
If the front passenger seat or rear seats
are in an unfavorable position, they are
adjusted to a better position. Rear seat
adjustment occurs only in vehicles with
individual seats* in the rear.
When the driving dynamic situation has
passed without an accident occurring,
the pre-tensioning on the seat belts is
deactivated.
The PRE-SAFE system is intended to reduce
the effects of an accident on properly seat
belted vehicle occupants. Despite having
the PRE-SAFE systems in your car, the pos-
sibility of injuries occurring as a result of an
accident cannot be totally eliminated.
Therefore you should always drive carefully
and adjust your driving to the prevailing
road, weather, and traffic conditions.
You can then adjust the seats and the
sliding sunroof to their previous posi-
tion.

tive measures to better protect the occu-
