Emergency locking retractor (ELR)

The retractor will lock the belt during a sud-

den stop or on impact. It may also lock if you 

lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy 

motion will allow the belt to extend so that 

you can move around fully.

■

Automatic locking retractor (ALR)

When a passenger’s shoulder belt is com-

pletely extended and then retracted even 

slightly, the belt is locked in that position and 

cannot be extended. This feature is used to 

hold a child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To 

free the belt again, fully retract the belt and 

then pull the belt out once more. (

WARNING

■

Adjustable shoulder anchor

Always make sure the shoulder belt is 

positioned across the center of your 

shoulder. The belt should be kept away 

from your neck, but not falling off your 

shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce 

the amount of protection in an accident 

and cause death or serious injuries in the 

event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or 

accident.
