SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION
The rear passengers' seat consists of a fixed, one piece seat
bottom and a three-position, reclining back. The reclining back is
adjusted by a lever located below the center of the seat frame. To
adjust the seat back, raise the lever, position the seat back to the
desired angle, release the lever and check that the back is locked in
place.
Headrests are installed on both the front and rear seats. To
adjust the headrest, apply enough pressure to it to raise or lower it
to the desired level.
INTEGRATED SEAT BELT/SHOULDER HARNESS
All seat positions are equipped with integrated seat
belts/shoulder harness assemblies (Refer to Figure 7-4). The design
incorporates an overhead inertia reel for the shoulder portion, and a
retractor assembly for the lap portion of the belt. This design allows
for complete freedom of movement of the upper torso area while
providing restraint in the lap belt area. In the event of a sudden
deceleration, reels lock up to provide positive restraint for the user.
In the front seats, the inertia reels are located on the centerline of
the upper cabin. In the rear seats, the inertia reels are located
outboard of each passenger in the upper cabin.
To use the integrated seat belt/shoulder harness, grasp the link
with one hand, and, in a single motion, extend the assembly and
insert into the buckle. Positive locking has occurred when a
distinctive "snap" sound is heard.
Proper locking of the lap belt can be verified by ensuring that the
belts are allowed to retract into the retractors and the lap belt is
snug and low on the waist as worn normally during flight. No more
than one additional inch of belt should be able to be pulled out of
the retractor once the lap belt is in place on the occupant. If more
than one additional inch of belt can be pulled out of the retractor,
the occupant is too small for the installed restraint system and the
seat should not be occupied until the occupant is properly
restrained.
Removal is accomplished by lifting the release mechanism on
the buckle or by pressing the release button on the buckle and
pulling out and up on the harness. Spring tension on the inertia reel
will automatically stow the harness.
