Inertia reel locking effect, checking

The inertia reel has two locking functions:

The first locking function is applied when the

belt is jerked out of reel (belt extraction

acceleration).

- Pull belt out of inertia reel with firm jerk.

If there is no locking effect, replace seat belt

complete with belt latch.

If there are difficulties with pulling out belt or

reeling it in, check first whether the position

of the inertia reel was changed.

The second locking function is applied by

changes in the vehicle movement (vehicle-

dependent locking function).

- Fasten seat belt.

Perform road test only on traffic-free road to

be sure not to endanger other motorists or

pedestrians.

- Accelerate vehicle to 20 km/h (12 mph) and then

step hard on foot brake.

If the belt is not locked when braking,

replace seat belt complete with belt latch.
