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 children and babies. If a child will be riding
in your Aurora, 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. The shoulder portion
of
the belt has an energy management loop. It is
designed to open and help protect you in certain crashes.
If
it
opens, you will see a label on the safety belt that
says to replace the belt. Be sure to do
so.
If you don’t,
the safety belt won’t work properly and won’t protect
you in another crash. For more information
on
replacing
safety belts after a crash, see “Replacing Safety Belts”
in the Index.
Here’s how to wear the lap-shoulder belt 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.
