TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of October 2, 1972, concerning the requirements applicable to a seat belt installed as part of a restraint system conforming to S4.1.2.3 of Standard 208.

You are correct in reading S4.1.2.3 to provide that a seat belt capable of meeting the injury criteria of Standard 208 is not required to meet Standard 209 except as provided in S7.1 and S7.2 of Standard 208.

We have under consideration a petition from the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association to amend Standard 209 to reflect the exemption made in Standard 208. The agency's response to the petition will be issued shortly.
