Your Chevrolet has .two air bags -- one: air.bag. far the

Here are the mrj'st importantthings-to knuw &out the air

To-unlatch the belt, ju.st.pu.shthe bu.ttm o n the-buckle.
The belt shoutd go-backout of the w.ay.
B-eforeyou..closethe-daor,be sure.the belt is out of the
way. if you .dam the doat on it, you can damage.-both.the
bdt .and your vehicle,
The best way to.protect.the fetusis to protect the
mother. When a.safety belt is worn properly, it’s more
likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyane.,the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them properly.
Rf@t Front Pasenger position
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
.way as the driver’s safety belt, See-“DriverPosition,”
.earlierin .this section.
When .theshoulder.belt is pulled Q U all
~
theway, it wilf
lock. If it does, let it go back all the way and start-again.
A-pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder belt;.andthe lap.portion should be worn as-l.ow as po.ssible, b-elow
the rounding, throughout the.pTegnancy.

----
If your vehicle has a bench seat, someone can sit in the
center position.
To make the belt shorter, -pull
its free end as shown until
the belt is snug.
When you sit in a center seating position, you have a lap
safety belt, which has no retractor. To make the belt
longer, tilt the latch plate and pullit -alongthe belt.
Buckle, position andrelease it the same way .as the lap
part o f a lap-shoulder belt. If the belt isn’t long enough,
see “Safety Belt Extender”at.the -endof this section.
Make sure the release button on tke buckle is positioned.
SO you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly
if you ever had to.
Jt’s very important for re.ar seat passengers tu buckle up!

Smaller children and babies should always be

young child’s hip bones. are so small that:a
regular belt might not stay low on the hips, as it
should. Instead, the belt will .likely.beover .the
child’s abdomen. In a crash, the belt would apply
force right on the child’s abdomen, which could
cause serious or fatal injuries. So, be sure ‘that
any child small enough for one is always properly
restraine.d in a child or infant restraint.

at only 25 mph (40 km/h), a 12-lb. (5.5 kg) baby
will suddenIy become a 240-lb..(I10 kg) force on
your arms. The baby would be almost impossible
to hold.
Secure the baby in an infant restraint.
Never hold a.baby in your arms while riding ina

'Your vehiclemay hav.e anti-1
'rakes (ABS). ABS is
an advanced electronic braking system that w.illhelp
prevent a braking skid.
'If your vehicle has anti-lock:-brakes, the brake pedal will
say so.
And this warning light on
the instrument panel will

ANTI LOCK
When you start your engine, or when you begin tu drive
:away, your anti-lock-brake-aystefnwill check itself. You
may hear a momen@ry motor or clicking noise while
this twt is going on, and you may even notice that your
brake pedal moves a little.This is normal.
If there’s a:pro.bdernwith the anti-lock brake system,
the anti-lock brake system warning light will stay an: aiffash. See “Anti-Lock Brake .SystemWarning Light”

Remember: Anti-lackdoesn’t change the time you need
to get your foot up to the-brakepedal or always decrease

front of you,-you won’thave :time to. apply your brakes
if that vehicle suddenly slows .or stops. Always leave
enough room up ahead to stop, :even thmgh you have
anti-lock brakes.
Don’t pump.the brakes. Just.hold the brake pedal .down

system fixed, since a leak means that .sooner or later your
brakes won’t work well, or won’t wotk zit all.
So, it isn’t a good idea to “top off’ your brake fluid,
Adding brake fluid won’t correct a leak. If you add fluid
when your linings are worn, then-you’ll have too much
fluid when yau get new brake linings. You should add
(or remove) brake fluid, as necessary, only when work is
done .on the .brake hydraulic system.
Your brake master cyiirrder reservoir is here. It is filled

Tltere are only two reasons why the brake fluid. level i n the

goes back up. The other reason is that fluid is Ieaking out:
