General Information

The Automatic Seat Belts are designed to automatically wrap themselves around the driver and front passenger as they get into the car and close the door, thereby protecting them from second collisions during a front-end crash or similar accident. The shoulder belt, which interlocks the opening and closing of the door, is designed to automatically wrap itself around, or unwrap itself from, the occupant within 2.5 seconds.

The lap belt for the driver's seat is provided with the Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR), and that for the front passenger's seat with the Emergency Locking Retractor-Automatic Locking Retractor (ELR-ALR) to support the Child Restraint System incorporated into the seat.

The seat belts consist of a shoulder belt with emergency release mechanism, manual lap belt, knee protector, and other components.
