The front seatback folds forward to let people get into the rear 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 the 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.

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 children an\
d babies.
If
a child will be riding in your Cadillac, 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.
DRMTR 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 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 crash.

SAFETYBELT USE DURING PREGNANCY
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.
ZUGHT FRONT PASSENGER POSITION
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See “Driver Position,” earlier in this section.
When the
lap portion of the belt is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it
does, let it go back all the way and start again.
