Wiring diagram:
The fuse holder is equipped with a common blade type 5
Ampere. The fuse protects against discharging of the battery
or fire in case of a short circuit.
Use only 5 Ampere fuses!
If a fuse blows first check the wiring and replace damaged
wires with original spare parts (see page 34) before you
insert a new fuse.
In order to help you quickly locate the cause of possible
problems with the electrical system of the SCHROTH asm-
autocontrol harnessbelts, we have prepared a Troubleshooting
Diagram (see page 32). Please follow the specific diagram
step by step if the retractor should not unlock when the ignition
is turned on.
OPERATING
1 General
instructions
Most Countries require that seat belts be worn by all
passengers when a car is in motion. Please check with your
local authorities for further information! Regardless of the law
in your State, it only makes sense to buckle up, so before you
start your car, make sure that you and all of your passengers
are properly restrained.
The SCHROTH asm harnessbelt system when properly
installed and used according to applicable instructions can
mitigate injury. Of course, the ability of any restraint system to
mitigate or prevent injury is directly related to the type and
severity of the accident.
The following pictures show the correct installation and use of
SCHROTH asm harnessbelts for the specific vehicle depicted.
This vehicle body is one of our test devices used to simulate
head-on collisions at 31 mph. Doors and other components not
required for the evaluation of harness belt performance have
been removed.
This product is not designed and tested to be used with
HANS
®
or other head and neck restraints e.g. Hutchens
device.
Shoulder belts may slip off the HANS
®
and crotch straps
e.g. of a Hutchens device cannot be properly attached to
the lap belt. Malfunction can result in serious personal
injuries or death.

Vehicles fully equipped with rear seats and rear lap and
shoulder seat belts.
For installation adapter part no. 01003 [USA: 01103] is necessary.
The eye of the ground wire must be fixed
with the bolt at the anchor point, because
the adapter is an insulator.
Align the adapter and retractor carefully before tightening
the bolts to prevent twisting or kinking of the tail strap
webbing and to make sure that the webbing can freely
move in and out of the retractor without interference when
the harness belt is in use.
Webbing which is twisted or kinked or cannot move freely,
can damage the webbing and will reduce the effectiveness
of the harness belt system.
Vehicles with rear seats removed (competition cars).
The retractor must be aligned as
shown and described in
paragraph 5.

Installation of the sensor
Improper sensor installation will reduce sensor
performance and impair effectiveness of harness belt
system in an accident.
Install sensor in a precise vertical position. During
installation make sure that the car is parked on a flat, level
surface.
Parking position of the vehicle for sensor installation. Make
sure the vehicle is level side to side and front to rear.
