Purpose and Function in the Safety System

The belt height adjuster in the Mercedes W204 model is responsible for adapting the seat belt's path to the user's height. A properly functioning mechanism:

• improves the belt's positioning on the body, which is important for the effectiveness of the passive safety system,
• reduces pressure on the neck and collarbone, increasing comfort during longer journeys,
• stabilizes the belt's routing in the front part of the cabin, making daily fastening easier.

The component is designed for installation at the front of the vehicle, in the seat belt mounting area on the body pillar.

• facilitates installation in place of the original component,
• ensures compatibility with factory seat belts,

As part of the seat belts and parts group, the mechanism works with belt pretensioners and retractors without interfering with their construction or operating parameters.
