Safety Belt Retractors: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Ford RV Cutaway, 2008 Ford Econoline, 2008 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2008 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Rear outboard safety belt retractors are not interchangeable. Each safety belt retractor is equipped with a locator pin unique to that seating position, and it cannot be installed in any other location. Do not remove or alter the locator pin in any way when installing the safety belt retractor or the safety belt retractor will not function as intended.
NOTE:
When installing a new dual locking mode retractor, the retractor should be checked to make sure it is not in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode after installation in the stowed position.
The safety belt retractors consist of the following features:
- Energy management (front seats only)
- Dual locking mode feature
- Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
- ALR (all except driver seat)
