Purpose and Function of the Seatbelt Pretensioner

The seatbelt pretensioner in Mini Countryman R60 and R61 models is responsible for controlled belt tightening at a critical moment, which limits the movement of the driver or passenger's body. A properly functioning pretensioner is a key element of the passive safety system, working in conjunction with the seatbelt and airbags.

The presented pretensioner is dedicated for installation on the right side of the vehicle, which guarantees proper fit to the seat structure and mounting points in the Mini Countryman. This allows for maintaining the factory operating parameters of the safety system without the need for modifications.

Original Origin and Compatibility

The product comes from the Mini OE line, which means it is an original component designed according to the vehicle manufacturer's specifications. This type of component is characterized by:

• Full structural compatibility with factory mounting points in the body and seat.
• Predictable cooperation with the electronics of the Mini Countryman R60/R61 safety system.
• Stable operating parameters in terms of pretensioner force and speed of operation.

By using an original pretensioner, you minimize the risk of system errors, incorrect belt tension, or problems with airbag warning lights on the dashboard.

Vehicle Placement and Installation Aspects

The pretensioner is designed for installation on the right side of the vehicle, which is important both mechanically and electrically. Proper placement ensures:

• Correct routing of the seatbelt relative to the seat and the body pillar.
• Proper connection of the wiring harness to the vehicle's electrical system without the need for wire modifications.
• Maintenance of the factory safety system geometry, which affects protection effectiveness in case of a collision.

The component is structurally prepared for installation in place of the original pretensioner, which facilitates service work and reduces replacement time.

Product Condition and Service Application

The Mini Countryman R60 R61 seatbelt pretensioner is offered as a used part, which is an economical service solution while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. This type of component is particularly useful in situations such as:

• Replacement after a safety system deployment following a collision or airbag activation.
• Clearing SRS system errors related to a faulty right-side pretensioner.
• Restoring full seatbelt functionality in a vehicle used intensively or in a fleet.

Using an original Mini part allows for maintaining the consistency of the safety system with other vehicle components.
