Chevrolet Trax: Lap-Shoulder Belt (U.S. and Canada)
All seating positions in the vehicle
have a lap-shoulder belt.
The following instructions explain
how to wear a lap-shoulder belt
properly.
- Adjust the seat, if the seat is
adjustable, so you can sit up
straight. To see how, see "Seats"
in the Index.
- Pick up the latch plate and pull
the belt across you. Do not let it
get twisted.
The lap-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.
If the shoulder portion of a
passenger belt is pulled out all
the way, the child restraint
locking feature may be engaged.
If this happens, let the belt go
back all the way and start again.
The rear center safety belt can
only be withdrawn from the
retractor if the seatback is in the
upright locked position.
- Push the latch plate into the
buckle until it clicks.
- Pull up on the latch plate to
make sure it is secure. If the belt
is not long enough, see Safety
Belt Extender
Position the release button on
the buckle so that the safety belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.
- If equipped with a shoulder belt
height adjuster, move it to the
height that is right for you. See
"Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster"
later in this section for
instructions on use and
important safety information.
- To make the lap part tight, pull
up on the shoulder belt.
It may be necessary to pull the
stitching on the safety belt
through the latch plate to fully
tighten the lap belt on smaller
occupants.
To unlatch the belt, push the button
on the buckle. The belt should
return to its stowed position. Slide
the latch plate up the safety belt
webbing when the safety belt is not
in use.
Before a door is closed, be sure the
safety belt is out of the way. If a
door is slammed against a safety
belt, damage can occur to both the
safety belt and the vehicle.
