improperly installed.
3. Check the seat belts for damage or discoloration.
Clean with a shop towel if necessary. Use only
soap and water to clean.
NOTE: Dirt build-up in the loops of the upper
anchors can cause the seat belts to retract slowly.
Wipe the inside of the loops with a clean cloth
dampened in lsopropyl alcohol.
Check that the seat belt does not lock when pulled
out slowly. The seat belt is designed to lock only
during a sudden stop or impact.
For rear center shoulder belt, check that the seat
belt locks when pulled out over 400 mm (15.7 in.)
with the seat-back folded down.
Make sure that the seat belt will retract
automatically when released.
For each passenger's seat belt, check the seat belt
retractor locking mechanism ALR (automatic
locking retractor). This function is for securing child

impact sensors, and other related components (see
page 23-112). After a collision in which a side airbag
was deployed. replace the side impact sensor on the
deployed side and the SRS unit. After a collision in
which the airbags or the side airbags did not deploy,
inspect for any damage or any deformation on the
SRS unit, front impact sensors, and the side impact
sensors. lf there is any damage, replace the SRS unit
and/or the sensors.
