additional protection in the event of a severe
frontal impact on the vehicle (see ‘HOW THE
AIRBAG SRS WORKS’, page 59). The
adjust their position on the seat to enable the
seat belt webbing to cross the shoulder without
pressing on the neck.
WARNING
pre-tensioners reduce any slack in both the lap
and diagonal portions of the belts, thereby
reducing forward movement of the belt wearer
in the event of a severe frontal collision.
Always transport children 12 years and under
in the second row seats and always properly
use appropriate child restraints.

appropriate child safety seats or
belt-positioning booster seats is
recommended.
If the pre-tensioners have been activated, the
seat belts will still function as restraints, and
must be worn in the event that the vehicle
remains in a driveable condition, however, for
the pre-tensioner to work properly again, it
must be replaced.
NOTE: For additional information, (see ‘CHILD
RESTRAINTS FOR SMALL CHILDREN AND
BABIES’, page 52).
Releasing the belt
Press the RED button on the seat belt buckle.
NOTE: The seat belt pre-tensioners will NOT be
activated by rear, side or minor frontal impacts.
WARNING
The seat belt pre-tensioners will only be
activated once and then MUST BE REPLACED
by a Land Rover retailer. Failure to replace
the pre-tensioners will reduce the efficiency
of the vehicle's front restraint systems.
After any frontal impact, always have the seat
belts and pre-tensioners checked and, if
necessary, replaced by a Land Rover retailer.
In the interests of safety, it is recommended
that removal or replacement of the front seats
and seat belts, with the use of
factory-specified parts, should ONLY be
carried out by a Land Rover retailer.
