Expectant mothers
Expectant mothers also need to use the
seatbelts. They should consult their doctor
for specific recommendations. The lap belt
should be worn securely and as low as
possible over the hips, not over the waist.

Emergency Locking Retrac-
tor (ELR)
All seatbelts in the vehicle have an
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR).
The emergency locking retractor allows
normal body movement but the retractor
locks automatically during a sudden stop,
impact or if you pull the belt very quickly
out of the retractor.
&
Automatic/Emergency Lock-
ing Retractor (A/ELR) (if
equipped)
For some models, each rear passenger
’
s
seatbelt has an Automatic/Emergency
Locking Retractor (A/ELR). The Auto-
matic/Emergency Locking Retractor nor-
mally functions as an Emergency Locking
Retractor (ELR). The A/ELR has an
additional locking mode,
“
Automatic Lock-
ing Retractor (ALR) mode
”
, intended to
secure a child restraint system.
First check if the ALR mode is equipped
for the seatbelts of the vehicle. If the ALR
mode is equipped, the seatbelts function
as follows.
When the seatbelt is once drawn out
completely and is then retracted even
slightly, the retractor locks the seatbelt in
that position and the seatbelt cannot be
extended. As the belt is rewinding, clicks
will be heard which indicate the retractor
functions as an ALR. When the seatbelt is
retracted fully, the ALR mode is canceled
and the ELR mode is restored.
For models with A/ELR seatbelts, when
securing a child restraint system on the
rear seats by using a seatbelt in the
forward-facing direction, the seatbelt must
be changed over to the Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) mode. For instructions on
how to install the child restraint system
using a seatbelt, refer to
restraint systems with seatbelt
When the child restraint system is re-
moved, make sure that the retractor is
restored to the Emergency Locking Re-
tractor (ELR) mode by allowing the seat-
belt to retract fully.
