the purpose of this test the 'Strap' must be fully withdrawn and the locking mechanism must be rendered inoperative.
9.2.2.                              In cases where the retracting 'Strap' of a 'Lap-Sash Belt' is the torso 'Strap', the retraction force in the 'Strap' before and after the retractor has been subjected to the retractor durability test of clause 11, must be not less than 2 N nor more than l0 N, under the following test conditions:
9.2.2.1.                        the 'Sash Guide' system and the retractor must be in the design configuration.  In the case of a 'Sash Guide' system with an adjustable 'Sash Guide' the retractor must be capable of meeting the requirements of this clause with the 'Sash Location Point' set in any position of adjustment;
9.2.2.2.                        the part of the test 'Strap' which simulates the torso 'Strap' must be withdrawn through the 'Sash Guide' system until it is within 430 mm of its fully extended condition;
9.2.2.3.                        the 'Strap' must be allowed to retract until a point on the 'Strap' is 450 ± 20 mm, measured along the 'Strap' from its position when the 'Strap' is fully extended. It must then be held stationary at this extension by a force applied in a downward direction at 20 ±10° to the vertical in a vertical plane which is at 35 ±10° to a longitudinal plane when viewed in plan, and must not be withdrawn again until the retracting force has been determined;
9.2.2.4.                        the retraction force must be measured in the test 'Strap' 'Forward' of the point where it would contact  the first 'Sash Guide' device after passing over the shoulder of the wearer; and
9.2.2.5.                        where the assembly incorporates a device that upon manual or automatic operation, prevents the belt from being completely retracted, such a device must not be operating when this requirement is assessed.
9.3.                                     'Automatic Length Adjusting and Locking Retractors'
9.3.1.                              The locking mechanism of an 'Automatic Length Adjusting and Locking Retractor' must be designed to provide a locked position for at least every 30 mm of 'Strap' extension from the position when the 'Seatbelt Assembly' is correctly fitted for a '50th Percentile 6 Years Old Child', with the 'Seat' in the rearmost riding position.
9.4.                                     'Emergency Locking Retractors' (other than 'Type 4N Retractors',  see Appendix A).
9.4.1.                               'Emergency Locking Retractors' must lock when the retractor and any associated devices to sense acceleration are accelerated at not more than 5 m/s2, the peak acceleration being attained in not less than 40 milliseconds.
9.4.2.                              Furthermore with a point on the external 'Strap' fixed the locking device must limit 'Strap' movement, measured from the time of application of the acceleration, to not more than:
9.4.2.1.                        30 mm, when the 'Strap' is
