NOTE:
When automatic locking retractor is activated, no further webbing can be drawn from the seatbelt retractor, prior to disengagement of the automatic locking. This can be mistaken as a jammed seatbelt retractor. Activated by total extraction of the webbing |
Automatic locking retractor is deactivated by allowing the webbing to retract until the clicking stops (close to park position) |
| When activated the automatic locking retractor is identified by a clicking noise during webbing retraction | When deactivated the automatic locking retractor seatbelt changes state, from a static seatbelt to an automatic seatbelt |
| If activated while the seat is occupied the belt will fell tight against the occupant | The seatbelt can be released in the normal way by pressing the red button on the buckle (slightly more force may be required as the belt is under tension) The seatbelt does not need to be cut to release the occupant |
