2007 CHEVROLET UPLANDER belt

If the LATCH system was being used during a
more severe crash, then you may need new
LATCH system parts.
If safety belts or built-in child restraint harness
straps are cut or damaged, replace them. Collision
damage also may mean you will need to have
safety belt, built-in child restraint, LATCH system
or seat parts repaired or replaced. New parts
and repairs may be necessary even if the safety
belt, built-in child restraint or LATCH system
was not being used at the time of the collision.
If an airbag inates, you will need to replace airbag
system parts. See the part on the airbag system
earlier in this section.If the frontal airbags inate, you will also need to
replace the driver’s and right front passenger’s
safety belt retractor assemblies. Be sure to do so.
Then the new retractor assemblies will be there
to help protect you in a collision.
After a crash you may need to replace the driver
and front passenger’s safety belt retractor
assemblies, even if the frontal airbags have not
deployed. The driver and front passenger’s safety
belt retractor assemblies contain the safety belt
pretensioners. Have your safety belt pretensioners
checked if your vehicle has been in a collision,
or if your airbag readiness light stays on after you
start your vehicle or while you are driving. See
Airbag Readiness Light on page 234.

Doors and Locks
Door Locks
{CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers, especially children, can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is
locked, the handle will not open it.
You increase the chance of being
thrown out of the vehicle in a crash if
the doors are not locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the
doors whenever you drive.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)

Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A
child can be overcome by extreme
heat and can suffer permanent injuries
or even death from heat stroke.
Always lock your vehicle whenever
you leave it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down
or stop your vehicle. Locking your
doors can help prevent this from
happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your
vehicle.
From the outside, use your key or the remote
keyless entry transmitter.
To unlock the driver’s door from the outside with
the key, insert the key and turn it toward the
front of the vehicle. To lock the driver’s door from
the outside with your key, insert the key and
turn it toward the rear of the vehicle.

Entry Lighting
With entry lighting, the interior of your vehicle is
illuminated so that you can see inside before
you enter your vehicle. The lamps will come on for
20 seconds if you unlock your door using your
key or the remote keyless entry transmitter and the
ignition is in LOCK. After 20 seconds have
passed, the interior lamps will slowly fade out. The
lamps will turn off before the 20 seconds if you
do one of the following:
Lock all the doors using the key.
Press lock on the power door lock switch.
Press lock on the remote keyless entry
transmitter.
When any door is opened, entry lighting is
cancelled. The interior lamps will stay on while
any door or the liftgate is open, and slowly fade out
when all doors and the liftgate are closed.
The interior lamps may stay on for up to 25 seconds
after all doors have been closed if they have not
been locked. SeeDelayed Lighting on page 208.
To turn the entry lighting feature off or on, seeDIC
Vehicle Personalization (Uplevel Only) on
page 275.
Delayed Lighting
The delayed lighting feature will continue to
illuminate the interior for 20 seconds after all doors
have been closed, so that you can nd your
ignition and buckle your safety belt at night.
Delayed lighting will not occur while the ignition is
in RUN or ACCESSORY. After 20 seconds
have passed, the interior lamps will slowly fade
out. The lamps will fade out before the 20 seconds
have passed if you do one of the following:
Turn the ignition to RUN or ACCESSORY.
Lock all doors using the remote keyless entry
transmitter.
Lock all doors using the power door lock
switch or the key.
To turn the delayed lighting feature off or on, see
DIC Vehicle Personalization (Uplevel Only) on
page 275.

Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in
both miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per
hour (km/h). Your odometer shows how far your
vehicle has been driven, in either miles (used
in the United States) or kilometers (used in
Canada).
Your vehicle has a tamper-resistant odometer.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle
needs a new odometer installed. The new one can
be set to the mileage total of the old odometer.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can display how far you have
driven since you last reset it.
For more information seeDIC Operation and
Displays on page 249.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm).
Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the key is turned to RUN or START, a
chime will come on for several seconds to remind
people to fasten their safety belts.
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay
on for several
seconds, then it will
ash for several more.
If the driver remains unbuckled when the ignition
is on and the vehicle is in motion, the chime
and safety belt light will be repeated. You should
buckle your seat belt. If the driver’s belt is
already buckled, neither the chime nor the light
will come on.
232

Passenger Safety Belt Reminder
Light
Several seconds after the key is turned to RUN or
START, a chime will come on for several seconds
to remind the front passenger to buckle their safety
belt. This would only occur if a passenger is
detected by the passenger sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System on page 106for more
information. The passenger safety belt light will also
come on and stay on for several seconds, then it
will ash for several more.You should have the
passenger buckle their
safety belt.
This light and chime reminder will be repeated if
the ignition is on, the vehicle is in motion, the
passenger is still unbuckled and the passenger
airbag is enabled.
If the passenger’s safety belt is buckled, neither
the chime nor the light will come on.
233

If the word OFF or the off symbol is lit on the
airbag status indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has turned off the right
front passenger’s airbag or airbags. See
Passenger Sensing System on page 106for more
on this, including important safety information.
If, after several seconds, all status indicator lights
remain on, or if there are no lights at all, there
may be a problem with the lights or the passenger
sensing system. See your dealer for service.
{CAUTION:
If the off indicator and the airbag
readiness light ever come on together, it
means that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. If this ever happens,
have the vehicle serviced promptly,
because an adult-size person sitting in the
right front passenger seat may not have
the protection of an airbag. SeeAirbag
Readiness Light on page 234.
Charging System Light
The charging system
light will come on briey
when you turn on the
ignition, but the
engine is not running,
as a check to show you
it is working.
It should go out once the engine is running. If it
stays on, or comes on while you are driving,
you may have a problem with the charging system.
It could indicate that you have problems with a
generator drive belt, or another electrical problem.
Have it checked right away. Driving while this
light is on could drain your battery.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on,
be certain to turn off all your accessories, such
as the radio and air conditioner.
