Functional Test - Automatic Locking Retractor

WARNING: After any vehicle collision, the safety belt system at all outboard seating positions (except driver, which has no "automatic locking retractor" feature) must be checked by a qualified technician to verify that the "automatic locking" feature for child seats is still functioning correctly, in addition to other checks for correct safety belt system function. A new safety belt and retractor assembly must be installed if the safety belt assembly's "automatic locking retractor" feature, or any other safety belt function, is not operating correctly when checked according to the procedures in the workshop manual. Failure to install a new safety belt and retractor assembly could increase the risk of injury in collisions.
  1. Position the seat back into the full UP position.
  2. Latch the seat belt buckle and tongue assembly.
  3. Pull the shoulder belt out until the automatic locking retractor (ALR) feature is activated.
  4. Release the shoulder belt and allow it to retract until it stops.
  5. Pull on the shoulder belt to check that the belt has remained in the ALR mode. If the belt is not locked, install a new safety belt and retractor assembly.
  6. Unlatch the safety belt tongue from the buckle and allow the safety belt to retract to its STOWED position.
  7. Pull the shoulder belt to verify the retractor assembly has converted automatically out of the ALR mode. If the shoulder belt remains locked in the STOWED position, install a new safety belt and retractor assembly.
