Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Your vehicle has a light that comes on as a reminder to buckle up. (See
“Safety Belt Reminder Light’’ in the Index.)
In many states and Canadian provinces, the law says
to wear safety belts.
Here’s why:
They work.
You never know if you’ll be in a crash. If you do have a crash, you don’t
know if it will be a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be
so serious that even
buckled up a person wouldn’t survive. But most crashes are in between. In
many of them, people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walk away.
Without belts they could have been badly hurt or killed.
After more than
25 years of safety belts in vehicles, the facts are clear. In
most crashes buckling up does matter ... a lot!
Why Safety Belts Work
I
When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as it goes.
Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it’s
just a seat on wheels.

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.

Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities. Although your
vehicle has a number of theft deterrent features,
we know that nothing we
put on it can make it impossible to steal. However, there are ways you can
help.
Key in the lgnition
If you walk away from your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an easy target
for joy riders or professional thieves
- so don’t do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver’s door, you’ll hear a tone
reminding you to remove your key from the ignition and take it with you.
Always do this. Your steering wheel will be locked, and
so will your
ignition.
If you have an automatic transmission, taking your key out also
locks your transmission. And remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your vehicle. Remember
to keep your valuables out of sight. Put them in a storage
area, or take them
with you.
Parking Lots
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching your vehicle, it’s best
to lock it up and take your keys. But what if you have to leave your ignition
key? What if you have to leave something valuable in your vehicle?
0 Put your valuables in a storage area, like your glove box.
0 Lock all the doors except the driver’s.

I NOTICE:
If you drive too quickly through deep puddles or standing water,
water can come in through your engine's air intake and badly
damage your engine. Never drive through water that is slightly
lower than the underbody
of your vehicle. If you can't avoid
deep puddles
or standing water, drive through them very slowly.
Engine Coolant Heater (Option)
4.3 Liter:
A. Engine coolant heater cord strap
B. Engine coolant heater cord cap
In very cold weather, 0°F (-1 8 "C) or colder, the engine coolant heater can
help. You'll get easier starting and better fuel economy during engine
warm-up. Usually, the coolant heater should be plugged in a mi\
nimum
of
four hours prior to starting your vehicle.
To
use the coolant heater:
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord.
3. Plug it into a normal, grounded 1 10-volt outlet.
