16 Safety Sport Sedan and SportCombi: The front safety belts are equipped with pretensioners and force limiters. The pretensioners are activated in the event of a violent frontal or side-on crash. The safety belt pretensioners are only activated if the safety belt in question is in use but not activated should the car roll over. The safety belt pretensioners serve to reduce the forward movement of the body by tensioning the belt. The force limiters reduce belt loads on the body by "slackening" the safety belt slightly to absorb the body's kinetic energy as gradually as possible. Convertible: The front and rear safety belts are equipped with pretensioners and force limiters. The pretensioners are activated in the event of a violent frontal or side-on crash. The front safety belt pretensioners are only activated if the safety belt in question is in use. The safety belt pretensioners serve to reduce the movement of the body by tensioning the belt, including in a roll over crash. The force limiters reduce belt loads on the body by "slackening" the safety belt slightly to absorb the body's kinetic energy as gradually as possible. Safety belt pretensioners WARNING If the car is involved in a crash, the safety belts, belt pretensioners and other components must be inspected and replaced as necessary. We recommend that you contact a Saab dealer. Never make any alterations or repairs to the safety belt yourself. We recommend that you contact a Saab dealer for any necessary repairs.

Safety belt pretensioners
Sport Sedan and SportCombi:
The front
safety belts are equipped with pretension-
ers and force limiters. The pretensioners
are activated in the event of a violent frontal
or side-on crash. The safety belt pretension-
ers are only activated if the safety belt in
question is in use but not activated should
the car roll over.
The safety belt pretensioners serve to
reduce the forward movement of the body
by tensioning the belt. The force limiters
reduce belt loads on the body by "slacken-
ing" the safety belt slightly to absorb the
body’s kinetic energy as gradually as possi-
ble.

are equipped with pretensioners and force
limiters. The pretensioners are activated in
the event of a violent frontal or side-on

are only activated if the safety belt in ques-
tion is in use.
The safety belt pretensioners serve to
reduce the movement of the body by ten-
sioning the belt, including in a roll over
crash. The force limiters reduce belt loads
on the body by "slackening" the safety belt
slightly to absorb the body’s kinetic energy
as gradually as possible.
