Cause	Correction
Definition: Do not replace the seat belt retractor for these conditions until first attempting to disengage the locking mechanism by reviewing the potential causes and the corrections listed below.
The seat belt retractor may lock intermittently in response to a rapid extraction of the seat belt during use. When the seat belt reels out at an accelerated rate and maintains tension, the seat belt retractor goes into a lock mode until tension is released.	This is a normal operating characteristic of the seat belt retractor system. This is the designed intent and indicates the seat belt is functioning properly.
