Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine (those next to side windows)
are linked to a buzzer and light
which remind occupants to fas­
ten seat belts.
• On cars with automatic trans­
missions, or manual transmis­
sions with steering column­
mounted shift levers, the buzzer
and light are designed to come
on when the ignition switch
is
on, the transmission selector is
in a forward drive position, and
the driver's or right front pas­
senger's lap belt
is not fastened.
• On manual transmission cars
with floor mounted shift con­
trols the reminders are designed
to come on when the ignition
switch
is on, the driver's or
right front passenger's lap belt
is not fastened and the transmis­
sion
is in any gear position, ex­
cept that they do not come
on
when the parking brake is en­
gaged.
NOTE: The right front seat con­
tains a weight detector which
is
designed to activate the buzzer
and light whenever
a. nominal
weight
is placed on the seat. The
weight detector cannot distinguish
between a passenger and any item
of luggage or cargo, therefore such
items should be placed elsewhere
in the car, preferably
in the trunk.
If seat belt system or reminder
system does not work
as described,
see your dealer for information
and assistance.
Shoulder Belts
• When properly worn with a lap
belt, a shoulder belt can provide
important additional protection
against impact with the car in­
terior by restraining forward
motion of the upper torso in a
collision. This
is particularly
true in the case of a frontal im­
pact, which
is the most frequent
7 type
of accident.
• To fasten the shoulder belt, un­
stow it and place the knob on
the shoulder belt end in the key-

Braking System
The service brake system is de­
signed for braking performance
under a wide range of driving con­
ditions even when the vehicle
is
loaded to its full rated vehicle load.
Power Brakes
On cars with power brakes if
power assist to the brakes
is inter­
rupted due to a stalled engine
or
some malfunction, two or more
brake applications can be made
using reserve power.
• If the brake pedal is held down.
the system
is designed to bring
the
car to a full stop on reserve
power. However, the reserve
power
is partially depleted each
time the brake pedal
is applied
and released.
• When reserve power is exhausted,
vehicle
can still be stopped by ap­
plying greater force to the pedal.
Parking Brake
• To set parking brake, fully de­
press foot pedal
at far left side.
• For maximum holding power.
depress regular brake pedal with
the other foot at the same time.
• To release parking brake, pull
"BRAKE RELEASE" lever on
lower left instrument panel.
• As a reminder, the brake system
warning light
is designed to glow
whenever the parking brake con­
trol ·
is not fully released , and the
ignition
is on.
• Never drive car with parking
20
brake set as this may overheat or
otherwise damage rear brakes.
NOTE: "Riding the brake" by rest­
ing your foot on the brake pedal
when not intending to brake can
cause abnormally high brake tem­
peratures, excessive lining wear
and possible damage to the brakes.
