the projected portion.

SEAT BELT RETRACTOR ON-VEHICLE CHECKNBRS0029S03Emergency Locking Retractors (ELR) and Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR)NBRS0029S0301NOTE:
All seat belt retractors are of the Emergency Locking Retractors (ELR) type. In an emergency (sudden stop)
the retractor will lock and prevent the belt from extending any further. All 3-point type seat belt retractors except
the driver's seat belt also have an Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR) mode. The ALR mode (also called child
restraint mode) is used when installing child seats. The ALR mode is activated when the seat belt is fully
extended. When the belt is then retracted partially, the ALR mode automatically locks the seat belt in a spe-
cific position so the belt cannot be extended any further. To cancel the ALR mode, allow the seat belt to fully
wind back into the retractor.
Check the seat belt retractors using the following test(s) to determine if a retractor assembly is operating
properly.
ELR Function Stationary CheckNBRS0029S0302Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward quickly. The retractor should lock and prevent the belt from extend-
ing further.
ALR Function Stationary CheckNBRS0029S03041. Pull out entire length of seat belt from retractor until a click is heard.
2. Retract the belt partially. A clicking noise should be heard as the belt retracts indicating that the retractor
is in the Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR) mode.
3. Grasp the seat belt and try to pull out the retractor. The belt must lock and not extend any further. If NG,
replace the retractor assembly.
4. Allow the entire length of the belt to retract to cancel the automatic locking mode.
ELR Function Moving CheckNBRS0029S0303WARNING:
Perform the following test in a safe, open area clear of other vehicles and obstructions (for example,
a large, empty parking lot). Road surface must be paved and dry. DO NOT perform the following test
on wet or gravel roads or on public streets and highways. This could result in an accident and seri-
ous personal injury. The driver and passenger must be prepared to brace themselves in the event the
retractor does not lock.
1. Fasten driver's seat belt. Buckle a passenger into the seat for the belt that is to be tested.
2. Proceed to the designated safe area.
3. Drive the vehicle at approximately 16 km/h (10 MPH). Notify any passengers of a pending sudden stop
and the driver and passenger must be prepared to brace themselves in the event the retractor does not
lock, apply brakes firmly and make a very hard stop.
During stop, seat belts should lock and not be extended. If the seat belt retractor assembly does not lock,
perform the retractor off-vehicle check.
SEAT BELT RETRACTOR OFF-VEHICLE CHECKNBRS0029S041. Remove the seat belt retractor assembly.
2. Slowly pull out belt while tilting the retractor assembly forward from the mounted position without twisting
the retractor assembly as shown in the illustration.
15 degrees or less tilt: Belt can be pulled out.
35 degrees or more tilt: Belt locks and cannot be pulled out.
