Adults
This part is only for people of adult size.
*
Be aware that there are special things to know about safety belts and
children. And there are different rules for smaller children and babies.
If
a child will be riding in your Cadillac, see the part of this manual called
“Children.” Follow those rules for everyone’s protection.
-
First, you’ll want to know which restraint systems your vehicle has.
We’ll start
with the driver position.
DRIVER POSITION
This part describes the driver’s restraint system.
Lap-Shoulder Belt
The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear it properly.
1. Close and lock the door.
2. Adjust the seat (to see how, see “Seats” in the Index) so you can sit up
straight.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on the hips, just
touching the thighs.
In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic
bones.
And you’d be less likely to slide under the lap belt. If you slid
under
it, the belt would apply force at your abdomen. This could cause
serious or even fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should go over the
shoulder and across the chest.
These parts of the body are best able to
take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks if there’s a sudden stop or crash.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
Before you begin to drive, move the shoulder belt adjuster to the height
that
is right for you.
-
To move it down, squeeze the release handle and move the height
adjuster to the desired position.
You can move the adjuster up just by
pushing up on the bottom
of the release handle. After you move the
adjuster to where you want it, try to move it down without squeezing the
release handle to make sure it has locked into position.
Adjust the height
so that the shoulder portion of the belt is centered on
your shoulder. The belt should be away from your face and neck, but not
falling
off your shoulder.

RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER POSITION
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See “Driver Position,” earlier in this section.
When the lap portion
of the belt is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it
does, let it go back all the way and start again. L_
REM SEAT PASSENGERS
It’s very important for rear seat passengers to buckle up! Accident
statistics show that unbelted people in the rear seat are hurt more often in
-,
crashes than those who are wearing safety belts. *a
Rear passengers who aren’t safety belted can be thrown out of the vehicle
in a crash. And they can strike others
in the vehicle who are wearing
safety belts.

The positions next to the windows have lap-shoulder belts. Here's how to
wear one properly.

belt across you more slowly. II
