Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides
Rear shoulder belt comfort guides may provide
added safety belt comfort for older children
who have outgrown booster seats and for some
adults. When installed on a shoulder belt, the
comfort guide positions the belt away from
the neck and head.
There is one guide for each outboard passenger
position in the rear seat. Here is how to install
a comfort guide to the safety belt:
1. Remove the guide from its storage clip, which
is behind the seatback. Pull the elastic cord
out from between the edge of the seatback
and the interior body.2. Slide the guide under and past the belt.
The elastic cord must be under the belt.
Then, place the guide over the belt, and
insert the two edges of the belt into the slots
of the guide.

To remove and store the comfort guide, squeeze
the belt edges together so that you can take
them out of the guide. Pull the guide upward
to expose its storage clip, and then slide the
guide onto the clip. Turn the guide and clip inward
and slide them in between the seatback and
the interior body, leaving only the loop of
the elastic cord exposed.
Safety Belt Pretensioners
Your vehicle has safety belt pretensioners for the
driver and right front passenger. Although you
cannot see them, they are part of the safety belt
assembly. They help tighten the safety belts during
the early stages of a moderate to severe frontal
or near frontal crash if the threshold conditions
for pretensioner activation are met. And, if
your vehicle has roof-mounted rollover airbags,
safety belt pretensioners can help tighten the
safety belts in a side crash or a rollover event.Pretensioners work only once. If they activate
in a crash, you will need to get new ones,
and probably other new parts for your safety belt
system. SeeReplacing Restraint System Parts
After a Crash on page 91.
Safety Belt Extender
If the vehicle’s safety belt will fasten around you,
you should use it.
But if a safety belt is not long enough, your retailer
will order you an extender. When you go in to
order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear,
so the extender will be long enough for you.
To help avoid personal injury, do not let someone
else use it, and use it only for the seat it is
made to t. The extender has been designed
for adults. Never use it for securing child seats.
To wear it, just attach it to the regular safety belt.
For more information, see the instruction sheet
that comes with the extender.

Operation Tips

Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the
air inlets at the base of the vehicle that may
block the ow of air into your vehicle.
Do not use any non-GM approved hood
deectors that could adversely affect the
performance of the system.
Keep the path under the front seats clear of
objects to help circulate the air inside of
your vehicle more effectively.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The passenger compartment air is routed through
a passenger compartment lter. The lter
removes certain particles from the air, including
pollen and dust particles. Reductions in airow,
which may occur more quickly in dusty areas,
indicate that the lter needs to be replaced.The lter should be replaced as part of routine
scheduled maintenance. SeeScheduled
Maintenance on page 420for replacement
intervals. To nd out what type of lter to use,
seeNormal Maintenance Replacement Parts
on page 434.
The passenger compartment air lter can be
accessed from under the hood.
1. Remove the push
pins from the air
lter access panel.
2. Remove the air lter access panel.
