Location
The buckle emergency tensioning retractors with the related squibs are located on the seat frame of the particular seat.
Task
The buckle emergency tensioning retractors eliminate, in the event of a head-on collision or a rear end collision, the seat belt slack and prevent the film reel effect of the seat belts. The close-fitting seat belt means that vehicle occupants are exposed to the deceleration forces acting on the body at an earlier stage.
