The positions next to the windows have lap-shoulder belts. Here’s how to
wear one properly.
1. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you. Don’\
t let it get
twisted. On four-door models, 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.
2. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure.
When the shoulder belt
is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it doesr
let it go back all the way and start again.
If the belt
is not long enough, see “Safety Belt Extender’’ at the end of
this section.
Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned
so you would
be able
to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
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 belt. Then, place the guide over the belt, and insert the two edges of
the belt into the slots
of the guide.
3. Be sure that the belt is not twisted and it lies flat. The elastic cord must
be under the belt and
the guide on top.
4. Buckle the belt around the child, and make sure that both the lap belt
and the shoulder belt are secured properly. Make sure that the\
shoulder
belt crosses the shoulder. See “Safety Belts, Rear Seat Passengers” in
the Index.
To remove and store the comfort guides, just perform these steps in reverse
order. Squeeze the belt edges together
so that you can take them out from
the guides. Pull the guide upward to expose its storage clip, and then slide
the guide onto the clip. Rotate the guide and clip inward and in between the
seatback and the interior body, leaving only the loop
of elastic cord exposed.

Be sure to follow the instructions for the restraint. You may find these
instructions on the restraint itself or in a booklet, or both.\
These restraints
use the belt system in your vehicle, but the child also has to be secured
within the restraint to help reduce the chance of personal injury. The
instructions that come with the infant or child restraint will \
show you how
to do that.
Where to Put the Restraint
Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in the
rear rather than the front seat. We at General Motors therefore recommend
that you put your child restraint in a rear seat outside posi\
tion unless the
child is an infant and you’re the only adult
in the vehicle. In that case, you
might want to secure the restraint in the right front seat wh\
ere you can keep
an eye on the baby.
Wherever you install it, be sure to secure the child restraint properly.
Keep in mind that an unsecured child restraint can move around\
in
a
collision or sudden stop and injure people in the vehicle. Be sure to properly
secure any child restraint in your vehicle
- even when no child is in it.
Top Strap
If your child restraint
has a top strap, it
should be anchored.

strap anchored,
you’ll
be ready to secure the
child restraint itself.
You’ll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See the earlier
part about the top strap
if the child restraint has one.
2. Secure the child in the child restraint as the instructions say.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle’s safety belt through or around the restraint. The child restraint
instructions will show
you how.
If the shoulder belt goes in front of the child’s face or neck, put it
behind
the child restraint.

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.
Center Seat Positions (&Door Models)
Don’t use child restraint in these positions. The restraints won’t work
