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
chrldren 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.
