NOTE: If a passenger’s seat belt is fully extended, then retracted even slightly, 
the Automatic locking retractor (ALR) will prevent it from being re-extended 
beyond that point, unless fully retracted again. This feature is used to help hold 
child restraint systems securely.
To find more information about seat belts, and how to install a child restraint 
system, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
