GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Seat belt with ELR
The seat belt with Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) is designed so that it locks immediately (to prevent the web-
bing from being pulled out of the retractor any further) when any of the following items is detected as exceeding
each set value; speed at which the webbing is pulled out of the retractor, acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle
speed, and inclination.
Seat belt with A-ELR
The automatic and emergency locking retractor (A-ELR) works as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) till its
webbing is pulled all the way out and then on as an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) till it is retracted fully.
ALR: Automatically locks when the webbing is pulled out from the retractor and allowed to retract even a little.
Then the webbing can not be pulled out any further, unless it is wound all the way back into the retractor, which
releases the lock and allows the webbing to be pulled out.
Driver and front passenger side air bags
The driver and front passenger side air bags are components of the air bag system. In occurrence of a front collision
with an impact larger than a certain set value, they are activated by the ignition signal from SDM to supplement
protection offered by the driver and front passenger seat belts.
the driver air bag (inflator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column
the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat
For more information, refer to SECTION 10B ªAir Bag Systemº.

10A-4 SEAT BELT
INSPECTION
Seat belts and attaching parts can affect the vital components and
systems of a vehicle. Therefore, they should be inspected carefully
and replaced with genuine parts only.
Seat belt
The seat belt webbing or strap should be free from damage.
Fully extend the seat belt to make sure there are no twists or tears
in it.
Retractor assembly
Let the seat belt retract fully to confirm its easy retraction.
The retractor assembly should lock webbing when pulled quickly.
The retractor assembly should lock webbing even when tilted
(approx. 15) toward the fore and aft or right and left directions.
Anchor bolt
Inspect all seat belt anchor bolts to verify that they are secure.
All anchor bolts should be secure and torqued to specification.
Belt latch
Belt latch should be secure when latched.
Inspect the seat belt buckle, ensuring that it locks and unlocks
easily.
After buckling the seat belt, tug sharply on the belt, checking that
the buckle remains locked.
Warning system
Check driver side seat belt strap switch for continuity by using ohm-
meter.
Without inserted buckle tongue to buckle catch:
Terminal ªAº and ªBº: Continuity
With inserted buckle tongue to buckle catch:
Terminal ªAº and ªBº: No continuity ()
As to seat belts with ALR (other than driver side seat belt), check
them as follows in addition to above check.
With vehicle at stop, pull seat belt all the way out, let it retract a
little and try to pull it. It should not be pulled out, that is, it should
be locked where retracted.
Let seat belt retract to its original state. Next, pull it half way out,
let it retract a little and try to pull it again. It should be pulled out
smoothly, that is it should not be locked at this time.

6) [In case of Driver Air Bag (Inflator) Module]
ii) Clear a space on the ground about 185 cm (6 ft) in diameter
where the driver air bag (inflator) module is to be deployed.
A paved, outdoor location where there is no activity is pre-
ferred. If an outdoor location is not available, a space on the
shop floor where there is no activity and sufficient ventilation
is recommended.
Ensure no loose or flammable objects are within the deploy-
ment area.
ii) Place the driver air bag (inflator) module, with its vinyl trim
cover facing up, on the ground in the space just cleared.
[In case of Passenger Air Bag (Inflator) Module]
iii) Clear a space on the ground about 185 cm (6 ft) in diameter
where the fixture (special tool) with attached air bag (inflator)
module is to be placed for deployment. A paved outdoor loca-
tion where there is no activity is preferred. If an outdoor loca-
tion is not available, a space on the shop floor where there is
no activity and sufficient ventilation is recommended. Ensure
that no loose or flammable objects are within the deployment
area.
iii) Place special tool (passenger air bag (inflator) module de-
ployment fixture) on the ground in the space cleared in step
i), if it has not already been placed there.
Special Tool
(B): 09932-75040
iii) Fill plastic reservoir in fixture (special tool) with water or sand.
This is necessary to provide sufficient stabilization of the fix-
ture during deployment.
iv) Securely attach the passenger air bag (inflator) module in the
fixture (special tool) using mounting attachment, hold-down
bolts and nuts and M8 bolts and nuts.
CAUTION:
Be sure to use the following bolt and nut for fixing pas-
senger air bag (inflator) module to mounting attach-
ment. Size: M8, Strength: 7T
Passenger air bag (inflator) module must be mounted so that
the bag will deploy upward. Securely tighten all fastener prior
to deployment.
