How
to
Wear
Safety
Belts
Properly
Adults
This part
is
only for people
of
adult size.
Be
aware
that
there
are
special
things
to know about
safety belts and children.
And
there are different rules for
smaller chldren
and
babies.
If
a
child will
be
riding
in
your Geo, see the
part
of
this
manual called “Children.”
Follow those rules
for
everyone’s protection.
First, you’ll want to know
which
restraint systems your
vehicle
has.
We’ll start with the driver position.
Driver
Position
This part describes the driver’s restraint system.
Lap-Shoulder
Belt
The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear
it
properly.
1.
Close and
lock
the
door.
2.
Adjust the seat (to see
how,
see
“Seats” in the Index)
so
you can sit up straight.
3.
Pick up
the
latch plate and pull
the
belt
across
you.
Don’t let it get twisted.
The shoulder belt may lock if
you
pull the belt across
you
very
quickly.
If
this happens,
let
the
belt
go
back
slightly
to
unlock
it.
Then pull the belt across
you
more slowly.
