1. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.
Don’t let it get twisted.
On convertible 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. If
the belt stops before it reaches the buckle, tilt the
latch plate and keep pulling until you can buckle it.
Pull
up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure.
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.

If your child restraint has a top strap, it should be
anchored.
If you need
to have an anchor installed, you can ask
your Chevrolet dealer to put it in for you. If you want to
install an anchor yourself, your dealer can tell you how
to do it. If
you have
a convertible, don’t use a restraint that has a
top strap in your vehicle because the top strap anchor
cannot be installed properly.
For cars first sold in Canada, child restraints with a top
strap must be anchored according to Canadian Law.
Your dealer can obtain the hardware kit and install it for
you, or you may install it yourself using the instructions
provided in the kit.
Use the tether hardware kit available from the dealer.
The hardware and installation instructions were
specifically designed for
this vehicle.
