Seats and Seat
Controls
This section tells you about the seats-
how to adjust them-and also about
reclining seatbaclts and head restraints.
Manual
Front
Seat
A
You
can lose control
of
the
vehicle
if
you
try
to adjust a
manual driver's seat while the
vehicle is moving. The sudden
movement could startle and
confuse you, or male you push a
pedal when you don't want to.
Adjust the driver's seat )only when
the vehicle
is
not moving.
Move the control handle under the
front
of
the seat to unlock it. Slide the
seat to where you want it. Then release
the handle and
try
to move the seat
with your body, to make sure the, seat is
locked into place.
Power Seat

To
Adjust the
Six-Way
Power

of
the seat by holding the switch

Reclining Front Seatbacks
(CONT.)
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is in motion can be
dangerous. Even if you buckle up, your safety belts can’t do their job
you’re reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can’t do its job because it won’t be against your body.
Instead, it will be in front of you. In a crash you could go into it, receiving neck
or other injuries.
The lap belt can’t
do
its job either. In a crash the belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not at your pelvic bones. This could
cause serious internal injuries.

A
Head Restraints
Slide the head restraint up
or
down
so
that the top of the restraint is closest to
the top
of
your ears.
This position reduces the chance
of
a
neck injury in a crash.
For proper protection when the vehicle is in motion, have the seatbaclc uprij
:.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear your safety belt properly.
-
Seatback Latches
In 2-door Chevrolets, the front seat
folds forward to let people get into the
back seat.
Your seatback
will
move back and forth
freely, unless you come
to
a sudden
stop. Then it will lock in place.
There’s one time the seatback may not
fold without
some
help
from
you. That’s
if your vehicle is parked facing down a
fairly steep hill.
To fold a seatback forward, push the
seatback toward the rear as you lift this
latch. Then the seatback will fold
forward. The latch must be down for
the seat to work properly.

This part of the manual tells you how to
use safety belts properly. It also tells
you some things you should not do with
safety belts.

For
Everyone
(Cont.)
This
figure lights up when you turn the
key to
Run
or
Start
when your safety
belt isn’t buckled, and you’ll hear a
tone, too. It’s the reminder to buckle
up. In many states and Canadian
provinces, the law says to wear safety
belts. Here’s why:
They
work.
t
You
never know
if
you’ll be in a crash.
If you
do
have a crash, you don’t know
if it
will
be a bad one.
A
few crashes are very mild.
In
them,
you won’t
get
hurt even if you’re not
buckled up. And some crashes can be
so
serious, like being hit by a train, that
even buckled up a person wouldn’t
survive. But most crashes are in
between. In many
of
them, people who
buckle up can survive and sometimes
walk away. Without belts they could be
badly hurt or killed.
After
25
years of safety belts
in
vehicles,
the facts are clear. In
most
crashes
buckling up does matter
.

a lot!
Why
Safety
Belts
Work
When
you
ride in or on anything,
you
go as fast as
it
goes.
1.
For
example,
if
the bike is
going
10
mph
(16
km/h),
so
is
the child.
2.
When the bike hits the block, it
stops. But the child keeps
going!

"car."
Suppose
it's just
a
