The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear it
properly.

so you can sit up straight.
3. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
Don’t let it get twisted.
Pull
up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure. If

1 NOTICE:
After you’ve used the coolant heater, be sure to
store the cord
as it was before to keep it away
from moving engine parts. If you don’t, it could
be damaged.
How long should you keep the coolant heater plugged
in? The answer depends on the weather, the kind
of oil
you have, and some other things. Instead of trying to list
everything here, we ask that you contact your Pontiac
dealer in the area where you’ll be parking your vehicle.
The dealer can give
you the best advice for that
particular area.
Shifting the Automatic Transaxle
Your automatic transaxle may have a shift lever located
on the console betwe’en the seats
or on the steering
column.
There are several different positions for your shift lever.
