When the key is turned to Run or Start,
a chime will come on for about eight
seconds to remind people to fasten their

How To Wear Safety Belts
Properly
Adults
This section 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
children and babies.
If a child will be
riding in your Chevrolet, see the section
after this one, 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.
Vehicles First SoldIn Canada
Was your Chevrolet first sold, when
new, in Canada?
(If it was, a sticker on
the driver’s door will say “conforms to
all applicable Canada motor vehicle
...”
etc.) If so, then the rest of Part 1 does
not apply to your vehicle.
To learn how to use your safety belts,
please read the
Owner’s Manual Safety
Belt Supplement. It comes with every
new Chevrolet first sold in Canada.

Safety Belt Use During
Prepncy
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.
