Seat Belts Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) Function Seat Belt Overview ● When the driver turns sharply or brakes suddenly, when there is a collision, or when the occupant leans forward too quickly, the seat belt automatically locks to effectively restrain and protect the occupant. Studies have shown that proper use of seat belts can significantly reduce casualties in emergency braking, sudden steering or collisions. Please read the following information carefully and observe it strictly. ● When the vehicle travels smoothly, seat belts are pulled out and retracted as the occupants move slowly and smoothly, allowing the occupants to move freely.
WARNING ● Before driving, make sure all occupants are properly buckled up to prevent serious injury or death in emergency braking or in a collision. ● If the seat belt locks due to sudden retraction, pull on the seat belt webbing to create retractable slack to pull out the seat belt. ● The seat belts are designed primarily to fit adults and are not intended for children. Make sure to choose an child restraint system appropriate for your child's age and size.
Pretensioner and Force Limiter Function* When a severe front collision occurs and the triggering conditions of the pretensioner are met, the pretensioner quickly retracts part of the seat belt and locks it to improve the protection of the occupant. The force limiter limits the seat-belt restraint force to the occupant's body to a certain extent so as to avoid injury to the occupant due to an excessive restraint force. ● If a seat belt is damaged or malfunctions, immediately contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for confirmation and handling. Until then, do not use the corresponding seat.
● All occupants should always fasten their seat belts while in the vehicle to avoid personal injury or death in case of an accident. Using Seat Belts 1. Adjust the seat position and seatback angle (see P61 ). ● It is recommended that children be seated in rear seats and always use seat belts and suitable child restraints. In case of emergency braking or a collision, unprotected children may be seriously injured and their lives may be endangered. Likewise, do not allow children to ride on someone's lap. This will render the children not adequately protected. 2. Adjust the position of the three-point seat belt.
● Keep the correct sitting posture and pull out the shoulder belt diagonally across the entire shoulder without contacting the neck or falling from the shoulder. Position the lap belt as low as possible around the hip. 12
