1995 CHEVROLET TRACKER Owners Manual

Safety Belt Extender
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.
Before replacing any safety belt, see your dealer
for the
correct part number. You'll need the model year and
model name for your vehicle. The model year is on your
title and registration. The model name
on the replacement belt must be listed
on the safety belt you want to replace. This label is on
the safety belt near the
door opening.

Keys
I

~ One
key is used for the
ignition, the doors, and
all other locks.
When a new Tracker is
delivered, the dealer
removes the metal
plate from the key ring
and gives it to the first
owner.
The
metal plate has a code on it that tells your dealer or
a qualified locksmith how to make extra keys. Keep the
code in a safe place.
If you lose your keys, you’ll be able
to
have new ones made easily using this code.
NOTICE:
Your Geo has a number of 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 an extra key.
