Abstract
A method for triggering a two-stage belt tensioner is provided, in which the second stage of the belt tensioner is triggered as a function of a crash severity and a sitting position. The crash severity is determined by a signal derived from an acceleration and determined during a collision, and the sitting position brings an influence to bear on the evaluation of this signal.
