Child Restraints
Be sure to follow the instructions for
the restraint.
You may find these
instructions on the restraint itself or in
a booklet, or both. These restraints use
the belt system
in your vehicle, but the
child also has to be secured within the
restraint to help reduce the chance
of
personal injury. The instructions that
come
with the infant or child restraint
baby will. suddenly become a 240-pound (1 10 kg) force on your-arms. The baby
would be almost impossible tu hold.
Secure the baby in an infant regint. I
will show you how to do that.
Where to Put the Restraint
Accident statistics show that children
are safer if they are restrained in the
General Motors therefore recommend
that
you put your child restraint in the

Wherever you install it, be sure to secure
the child restraint properly.
Keep
in mind that an unsecured child
restraint can move around
in a collision
or sudden stop and injure people
in the
vehicle. Be sure to properly secure any
child restraint
in your vehicle - even
when no child is in it.
Top Strap
If your child restraint has a top strap, it
should be anchored.
If you need to have an anchor installed,
you can ask your Chevrolet dealer to put
it in for you. If you want to install an
anchor yourself, your dealer can tell you
how to do it.
If you have a convertible, don’t use a
restraint that has a top strap
in your
vehicle because the top strap anchor
cannot be installed properly.

restraints with a top strap must be
anchored according to Canadian Law.
Your dealer can obtain the hardware kit
and install it for you, or you may install it
yourself using the instructions provided
with the kit.
Use the tether hardware kit available from
the dealer. The hardware and installation
instructions were specifically designed for
this vehicle.

Vehicle theft is big business, especially in
some cities. Although your Chevrolet has
a number of theft-deterrent features, we
know that nothing we put on it can make
it impossible to steal. However, there
are
ways you can help.
Key in the ignition: If you walk away
from your vehicle with the keys inside,
it’s an easy target for joy riders or
professional thieves
- so don’t do it.
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.
PASS-Key@ZZ
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 key from the ignition.
PASS-Key@II uses a resistor pellet in
the ignition key that matches a decoder
in your vehicle.
