Seat Belt Pre-tensioners
Seat Belt Pre-tensioners
WARNING: If a seat belt pre-tensioner has been activated, it must be replaced. After an impact or collision, even if there is no obvious damage, always have the seat belts checked and (if necessary) replaced by Fisker.
The seat belts for the front and outer rear seating positions are equipped with pre-tensioners that work in conjunction with the airbags in a severe front- or side-impact collision.
Note: A pre-tensioner only activates if the seat belt is already buckled at the time of the collision.
The pre-tensioners automatically retract the seat belts, reducing any slack in both the lap and shoulder portions of the belts, thereby reducing forward movement of the seat belt wearer.
The seat belt pre-tensioners can only be activated once before they must be replaced by Fisker.
If a pre-tensioner has been activated, the airbag warning indicator (telltale) illuminates on the Driver Display.
Note: Even if the pre-tensioners have been activated, the seat belts still function as restraints, and must be worn in the event that the vehicle remains in a drivable condition.
