functions to produce a constant pressure which is
alwav2lower than the line pressure. With this pressure as
hydraulic pressure source, the control pressure is produced
LJYthe pressure control solenoid valve, thus activating the
pressure control valve.
l
(1

) Line pressure is directed through the No. 1 port to the
space created between the
# 1 and #2 lands of the
reducing valve and is then directed to the above-mentioned
pressure control solenoid valve from the No.23 port as the
reducing pressure.
:) The pressure directed to the space between the # 1 and
#2 lands of the reducing valve is applied to the areaequivalent to the difference in area between the lands, and
constantly forces the valve toward the right against
thespring force. The reducing pressure is regulated in this
manner by the operation of the reducing valve.
(3) if the pressure between the lands becomes higher, the
reducing valve moves farther to the right against the spring
force and its
# 1 land closes the No. 1 port to shut off theline pressure while the
# 2 lands opens the exhaust poti !grelieve the fluid pressure. As a result, the reducing
press1is lowered.

1750090The low-reverse brake has the capacity that the
vehicle can be reversed at any point. Therefore, the
low-reverse brake operating pressure for the
“L”range is set to a level lower than that for
“I?” range.
This lower pressure is produced by reducing the line
pressure from the No. 5 port of the pressure controlvalve by a certain level before being delivered
frorthe No. 10 port to the low-reverse brake via the
1-lshift valve.
The method of regulation of pressure from the
No.:port to the No. 10 port is the same as that for
tht“Upshift” explained on the previous page.

23-32BODY - Seat Belts
OPERATION OF AUTOMATIC SEAT BELTS
The operation of the Automatic Seat Belts is as follows.
(1) The belts fasten itself around the occupant when the front
door is closed with the ignition switch in the “ON” position.
(2) The belts release itself from the occupant when the front
door is opened with the ignition switch in the
*“ON” or
“LOCK” or “ACC” position.
(3) The belts cease to fasten itself around the occupant if the
ignition switch is turned to “LOCK” or “ACC” or when the
front door is opened during the belt motion.
(4) The belts for the driver’s and front passenger’s seats
operate independently of each other.

ELR/ALR,
SWITCHOVER MECHANISM
The
ELR/ALR switchover mechanism is installed at the re
tor for the lap belt for the front passenger’s seat,
The component is an assembly supply item, and so is not to be
disassembled. Its construction and operation are, however, as
described below.
Gear
B is coupled with the shaft of the retractor; it rotates in ::the counterclockwise direction when the belt is pulled out.
Gear A is meshed with gear
B, and revolve in the same
direction as gear
B.The illustration
(19PO373) shows the condition when the belt is
completely rewound.
When the belt is pulled out completely, gear A revolves about
three times, and the gear A cam contacts rod A, thereby
pressing rod A. Rod A then presses the stopper, and the
stopper presses the sub
pawl.When the sub pawl is pressed, the internal lock mechanism
functions, and the belt pull-out motion becomes lock, thus
becoming ALR.
When the belt
is rewound about 600 mm (23.6 in.) from the
completely pulled-out position, gear A revolves in the clockwise
direction. with the result that the cam of gear A contacts rod
6and causes rod
B to be pressed.
Rod
B then presses the stopper, thus causing the sub pan -return. thereby unlocking the lock and making pull-out
freti.thus becoming ELR.
