Safety Belts: They're For Everyone - Cadillac 1998 Seville Owner's Manual

Safety Belts: They're for Everyone
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.
And it explains the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint
(SIR), or air bag system.
Don't
let
anyone ride where he or she can't wear
a safety belt properly. If you are in a crash and
you're not wearing
a
safety belt, your injuries
can be much worse. You can hit things inside the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be seriously
injured or killed. In the same crash, you might
not be if you are buckled up. Always fasten your
safety belt, and check
that
your passengers' belts
are fastened properly too.
~~
L
It
is extremely dangerous to ride in
a
cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to
ride in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and safety belts. Be sure
everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a
safety belt properly.
Your vehicle has a light that
comes on as a reminder to
buckle up. (See "Safety Belt
Reminder Light" in
,
the Index.)
