glove box CHEVROLET CAMARO 1993 Owners Manual

When electrical work is done under the
hood or inside your vehicle, the ignition
should be in
LOCK if possible. Avoid
wires wrapped with yellow tape, or yellow
connectors. They are probably part
of the
air bag system.
Your vehicle has a driver’s air bag and a
right-front passenger’s air bag. Both bags
must
be disconnected if the ignition has to
be on for electrical work or if the steering
column is to be disassembled. First,
disconnect the driver’s air bag like this:
1. Turn off the ignition.
2. Remove the SIR (air bag) fuse.
(See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers”
in the Index.)
3. Disconnect the yellow connector at the
base
of the steering column. After
you follow this procedure for the
jriver
’s air bag, then disconnect the
right-front passenger’s air bag like this:
1. Remove the cover under the instrument
2. Disconnect the small yellow connector
When the work is complete, if the air bag
system was disconnected, be sure to
reattach everything and replace
the fuse
before turning the ignition on. When you
turn the ignition key on, be sure you see
the air bag readiness light on the
instrument panel.
If you don’t see this lighl
flash and then go out as usual, have your
air bag system repaired.

Safety Belt Use dumg
Pregnancy
Safety belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Like all occupants, they
are more likely to be seriously injured if
they don’t wear safety belts.
A pregnant woman should wear a
lap-shoulder belt, and the lap portion
should be worn as low as possible
throughout the pregnancy.
The best way to protect the fetus is to
protect the mother. When a safety belt is
worn properly, it’s more likely that the
fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For pregnant
women, as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them
properly.

Seats & Safety Belts
Vehicles first sold in Canada have child
restraint anchor bracket hardware
in the
glove box, along
with instructions for
installing
it. This should be used only
with a child restraint, and only to secure a
child restraint at a rear seating position.
An additional anchor bracket for a child
restraint at the other rear seating position
is available at Chevrolet dealerships
in
Canada.
Securing a Child Restraint in the Rear
Seat
You’ll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See
the earlier section about the top strap
if
the child restraint has one.
1. Put the restraint on the seat. Follow
the instructions for the child restraint.
2. Secure the child in the child restraint
as the instructions say.
3. Pull out the vehicle’s safety belt and
run the lap part through or around the
restraint. The child restraint
instructions
will show you how. Tilt
the latch plate to adjust the belt if
needed.
See
if the shoulder belt would go in
front of the child’s face or neck. If so,
put it behind the child restraint.

When you park your Chevrolet and open
the driver’s door, you’ll hear a tone
reminding you to remove your key from
the ignition and take
it with you. Always
do this. Your steering wheel
will be
locked, and
so will your ignition. If you
have an automatic transmission, taking
your key out also locks your transmission.
And remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night: Park in a lighted spot,
close all windows and lock
your vehicle.
Remember
to keep your valuables out of
sight. Put them in a storage area, or take
them with you.
Parking Lots: If you park in a lot where
someone will be watching your vehicle,
it’s best to lock it up and take your keys.
But what if you have to leave your
ignition key? What
if you have to leave
something valuable
in your vehicle?
0 Put your valuables in a storage area,
like your glove box.
0 Lock the glove box.
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
Then take the door key with you.

Your vehicle is equipped with the
PASS-Key II@ (Personalized Automotive
Security System) theft-deterrent system.
PASS-Key II@ is
a passive theft-deterrent
system. This means you don’t have to do
anything different to arm or disarm the
system. It works when you insert or
remove the ke from the ignition.
PASS-Key I1 uses
a resistor pellet in
the ignition key that matches a decoder
in your vehicle.
When the PASS-Key
II@ system senses
that someone is using the wrong key,
it
shuts down the vehicle‘s starter and fuel
systems.
For about three minutes, the
starter won’t work and fuel won’t
go to
