When replacing the seat belts on a Mercedes-Benz E260L, specialized computer equipment is required for matching and resetting. Mercedes-Benz seat belt automatic tightening function: The moment the seat belt tightens, the vehicle's computer automatically records the occupant's body shape to determine the appropriate force for tightening the seat belt in the event of an accident, thereby protecting your life. Therefore, this function should not be turned off unless there is a specific need. Seat belts: Car seat belts are safety devices designed to restrain occupants during a collision, preventing secondary collisions with the steering wheel, dashboard, etc., or avoiding injuries caused by being thrown out of the vehicle. How seat belts work: The retractor's function is to store and lock the webbing, making it the most complex mechanical component in the seat belt system. Inside the retractor is a ratchet mechanism. Under normal circumstances, occupants can pull the webbing freely and at a constant speed. However, when the webbing is continuously pulled out and suddenly stops or when the vehicle encounters an emergency, the ratchet mechanism locks the webbing automatically, preventing further extension.
