| Emergency tensioning retractor, purpose | In the even of a collision (head-on or rear-end) the emergency tensioning retractor eliminates the slack in the belt and prevents the film reel effect. The tight seat belt causes the vehicle passengers to decelerate at the same rate as the body at an earlier point in time. |
