Safety Belts - Pontiac 2010 Vibe Owner's Manual

2-8 Seats and Restraints
To raise the seatback:
1. Pull the seatback up and
push it back to lock it into place.
The safety belts should not be
twisted or caught in the seatback.
{
CAUTION
A safety belt that is improperly
routed, not properly attached,
or twisted will not provide the
protection needed in a crash.
The person wearing the belt could
be seriously injured. After raising
the rear seatback, always check
to be sure that the safety belts are
properly routed and attached, and
are not twisted.
2. Push and pull the top of the
seatback to check that it is locked
into position.
{
CAUTION
If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.

Safety Belts

This section of the manual describes
how to use safety belts properly.
It also describes some things not
to do with safety belts.
{
CAUTION
Do not let anyone ride where
a safety belt cannot be worn
properly. In a crash, if you or your
passenger(s) are not wearing
safety belts, the injuries can be
much worse. You can hit things
inside the vehicle harder or be
ejected from the vehicle. You and
your passenger(s) 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
passenger(s) are restrained
properly too.
