) function allows the user to lock the retractor at a set position (also called child restraint mode) used for securing child seats. ALR mode is activated by extending the retractor all the way out until a "click" is heard, next let the seat belt (webbing) retract into the retractor to the desired length and stop the belt at that point. The retractor locks and will not let the belt lengthen at that point (only retract). To cancel ALR mode and return the retractor to the ELR mode, just let the retractor retract the webbing all the way back into the retractor.
