I Front Seatback Latches
(2-DOOR MODELS)
In 2-door models, the front seatback
folds forward
to let people get into the
back seat. Your seatback will move back
and
forth freely, unless you come to a
sudden stop. Then it will lock
in place.
There’s one time the seatback may
not
fold without some help from you. That’s
if your vehicle is parked going down a
fairly steep hill.
To fold a front seatback forward, push
the seatback toward the rear as you
lift
this latch. Then the seatback will fold
forward. The latch must be down for the
seat
to work properly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If the seatback isn’t locked, it
4 L could move forward in a
sudden
stop or crash. That could
cause injury
to the person sitting
there. Always press rearward on
the seatback to be sure it is locked.
Easy-Entry Seat

The right front seat of your vehicle
makes it easy to get
in and out of the
rear seat.
When you push down on the rear latch
and tilt the right front seatback fully
forward, the whole seat will slide
forward.
After someone gets into the rear seat
area, move the right front seatback to
its original position. Then move the
seat rearward until it locks.
If an easyentry right front
b seat isn’t locked, it can move.
In a sudden stop or crash, the
person sitting there could be
injured, After you’ve used it, be
sure to push rearward on an
easy-entry seat to be sure it is
locked.

fully forward.

Why Safety Belts Work
When you ride in or on anything, you
go as fast as it goes.
1. For example, if the bike is going
10 mph (16 km/h), so is the child.

2. When the bike hits the block, it
stops.
But the child keeps going!
3. Take the simplest “car.” Suppose
it’s just a seat on wheels.

Automatic Lap-Shoulder Belt
(CON 1)
And you don't have to unbuckle when
you get out.
Just get into the vehicle. Then close and
lock the door. Adjust the seat
so you can
sit
up straight. (To see how, see the
Index under Seat Controls.)
The lap belt should be worn as low on
the hips as possible. 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 a crash. It's possible that
an automatic belt could
keep you from fully opening a door.
That can happen if the door was
slammed shut very hard. Just close the
door all the way, then slowly open it.
If
that doesn't fix it, then your Chevrolet
needs service.
We hope you'll always keep your
automatic belt buckled. However, you
may need to unbuckle it in an
emergency.
