S-BELT USE DUHNG PmGNANCY
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.

Matching Transmitter (s) To Your Vehicle c_
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from
unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can
be purchased through your dealer. Remember
to bring any remaining
transmitters with
you when you go to your dealer. When the dealer
matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, the remaining
transmitters must also be matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the
lost transmitter
will not unlock your vehicle. -*
You can match a transmitter to as many different vehicles as you own,
provided they are equipped
with exactly the same model system. (General
Motors offers several different models
of these systems on their vehicles.)
Each vehicle can have only
two transmitters matched to it.
--E-
See your dealer to match transmitters to another vehicle.
Battery Replacement
I_
LJ
Under normal use, the batteries in your key chain transmitter should last --
about two years.
You can tell the batteries are weak
if the transmitter won't work at the
normal range in any location. If you have to get close
to your vehicle
before the transmitter works, it's probably time
to change the batteries.
1. Use the round end
of the door key, or a
coin,
to rotate the
cover
counterclockwise
1/16 of a turn.
