INSPECTION
CAUTION:
Replace the seat belt assembly (outer belt, inner belt, bolts
or nuts and sill-bar) if it has been used in a severe impact.
The entire assembly should be replaced even if damage is
not obvious.
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) and Automatic Lock-
ing Retractor (ALR) type
1. All seat belt:
RUNNING TEST (IN SAFE AREA)
(a) Fasten the front seat belts.
(b) Drive the car at 10 mph (16 km/h) and make a very hard
stop.
(c) Check that the belt is locked and cannot be extended at
this time.
HINT:
Conduct this test in a safe area. If the belt does not lock, remove
the belt mechanism assembly and conduct the following static
check. Also, whenever installing a new belt assembly, verify the
proper operation before installation.
2. Driver 's seat belt (ELR):
STATIC TEST
(a) Make sure that the belt locks when pulled out quickly.
(b) Remove the locking retractor assembly.
(c) Tilt the retractor slowly.
(d) Make sure that the belt can be pulled out at a tilt of 15 de-
grees or less, and cannot be pulled out at over 45 degrees
of tilt.
If a problem is found, replace the assembly.
3. Except driver's seat belt (ALR/ ELR):
STATIC TEST
(a) Make sure that the belt locks when pulled out quickly.
(b) Remove the locking retractor assembly.
(c) Pull out the whole belt and measure the length of the
whole belt. Then retract the belt slightly and pull it out
again.
(d) Make sure that the belt cannot be extended further.
If a problem is found, replace the assembly.
