Abstract

A method for controlling a belt hand-over device during a delivery movement for taking up and delivering a seat belt into a presentation position ergonomically favorable for a user includes extending a belt finger taking up the seat belt into an extended position substantially oriented transversely to the moving path of the belt hand-over device, and during a return movement, retracting the belt finger into a retracted position substantially coinciding with the moving path and wherein the belt hand-over device is moved in a rest position. The extending and retraction of the belt finger during the delivery and return movements of the belt hand-over device are triggered at different positions in the moving path of the belt hand-over device between the rest position and the presentation position.
