1995 CHEVROLET CAMARO Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Q: What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt,
but the child is
so small that the shoulder belt is
very close to the child’s face or neck?
be sure that the shoulder belt still is on the child’s
shoulder,
so that in a crash the child’s upper body
would have the restraint that belts provide.
A: Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but

should be
worn low and snug on the hips, just touching
the child’s thighs. This applies belt force to the child’s
pelvic bones in a crash.

If the vehicle’s safety belt will fasten around you, you
should use it.
But if a safety belt isn’t long enough to fasten, your
dealer will order
you an extender. It’s free. When you go
in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear,
so the
extender will be long enough for you. The extender will
be just for you, and just for the seat in your vehicle that
you choose. Don’t let someone else use it, and use it
only for the seat it is made to fit.
To wear it, just attach it
to the regular safety belt.
Checking Your Restraint Systems
Now and then, make sure all your belts, buckles, latch
plates, retractors, anchorages and reminder systems are
working properly.
Look for any other loose or damaged
restraint system parts.
If you see anything that might
keep a restraint system from doing its job, have it
repaired.
Torn or frayed belts may not protect you in a crash.
They can rip apart under impact forces. If a belt
is torn
or frayed, get a new one right away.
Replacing Seat and Restraint System
Parts After a Crash
If you’ve had a crash, do you need new belts?
After a very minor collision, nothing may be necessary.
But if the belts were stretched, as they would be
if worn
during a more severe crash, then you need new belts.
If belts are cut or damaged, replace them. Collision
damage also may mean you will need to have safety belt
or seat parts repaired or replaced. New parts and repairs
may be necessary even if the belt wasn’t being used at
the time of the collision.

The ignition keys are for the ign’ition only.
-l
The door keys are for the
doors and all other locks. When
a new Camaro is
delivered, the dealer
removes the plugs from the
keys, and gives them to the
first owner.
The ignition keys don’t have plugs. Instead, they have
bar-coded key tags. These tags may be removed by your
dealer or even before the vehicle
is delivered to your
dealer.
Each plug
has a code on it that tells your dealer or a
qualified locksmith
how to make extra door keys. Keep
the plugs in a safe place.
If you lose your door keys,
you’ll be able to have new ones made using these plugs.

NOTICE:
Your Chevrolet has a number of new features
that can help prevent theft. But you can have a
lot of trouble getting into your vehicle if you ever
lock your keys inside.
You may even have to
damage your vehicle to get in.
So be sure you
have extra keys.
