How to Wear Safety Belts Properly
Adults
This part is only for people of adult size.
Be
aware that there are special things to know about
safety belts and children.
And there are different rules for
smaller chldren
and babies. If a child will be riding in
your Geo, see the part of this manual called “Children.”
Follow those rules
for everyone’s protection.
First, you’ll want to know
which restraint systems your
vehicle has.
We’ll start with the driver position.
Driver Position
This part describes the driver’s restraint system.
Lap-Shoulder Belt
The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear
it properly.
1. Close and lock the door.
2. Adjust the seat (to see how, see “Seats” in the Index)
so you can sit up straight.
3. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.
Don’t let it get twisted.
The shoulder belt may lock if
you pull the belt across
you very quickly. If this happens, let the belt go back
slightly
to unlock it. Then pull the belt across you
more slowly.

6. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of
the retractor to set the lock.
7. To tighten the belt, feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor while you push down on the
child restraint,
8. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions
to be sure it is secure.
To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle’s
safety belt and let it go back all the way. The safety belt
will move freely again and be ready to work for an adult
or larger child passenger.

Door Locks
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers
-- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and
fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handie won't open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may
not be so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren't locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be
far
better off whenever you drive your vehicle.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use your key.
To lock the door, turn
the key toward the front of the vehicle.
To unlock the
door, turn the key toward the rear.
To lock the door from
the inside, push down
the button
on the door.
I To unlock it, pull up on
the button.

Rear Door Security Locks ($-Door Models)
Your Ge6 is equipped with
rear security door locks that
help prevent passengers
from opening the rear
doors
of your vehicle
from the inside.
To use one of these locks:
1. Move the lever down to engage the lock.
2. Close the door.
3. Do the same to the other rear door lock.
The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from
the inside when this feature
is in use.
,
If you want to open a rear door when the security lock is
on, unlock the door from the inside, then open the door
from the outside.
If you don’t cancel the security lock feature, adults or
older children who ride
in the rear won’t be able to open
the rear door from the inside.
You should let adults and
older children know
how these security locks work, and
how to cancel
the locks.
To cancel the rear door lock:
1. Unlock the door from the inside and open the door
from the outside.
2. Move the lever up to disengage the lock.
3. Do the same for the other rear door.

door and set
the locks from inside. Then get out and
close
the door.
