how to adjust them-and also about
reclining seatbaclts and head restraints.
Manual Front Seat
A You can lose control of the
vehicle
if you try to adjust a
manual driver's seat while the
vehicle is moving. The sudden movement could startle and
confuse you, or male you push a
pedal when you don't want to.
Adjust the driver's seat )only when
the vehicle
is not moving. Move
the control handle under the
front
of the seat to unlock it. Slide the
seat to where you want it. Then release
the handle and
try to move the seat
with your body, to make sure the, seat is
locked into place.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Seatback Latches
In 2-door Chevrolets, the front seat
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 facing down a
fairly steep hill.
To fold a 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.

. Safety BeS:
Ilzeyke For Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to
use safety belts properly. It also tells
you some things you should not do with
safety belts.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.

This section describes the driver’s
restraint system.
Automatic Lap-Shoulder Belt
This safety belt is called “automatic”
because you don’t have to buckle up
when you
get into your vehicle. And you
don’t have to unbuckle when
you get out.
Just get into your vehicle. Then close
and lock the door. Adjust the seat (to
see how, see the
Index under Seat
Controls) so you can sit up straight.

Automatic LapShoulder Belt (CONTI)
Thelap 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 youfrom'€ully opening a
door. That
cm 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 will always keep your
automatic belt buckled. However, you
may need to unbuckle it
in an
emergency.
And you would need to unbuckle it to
let someone
get into the center front
seat position,
if your vehicle has one.
To Unbuckle the Automatic Belt:
Just push the button on the buckle. -

3. To make the lap part tight, pull
down on the buckle end of the belt
as
you pull up on the shoulder part.

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
shouIder 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.
GAU I IUN
You can be seriously hurt if
9 your shoulder belt is too
loose. In a crash you would move
forward too much, which could
increase injury. The shoulder belt
should fit against your body.
