The safety belt loclts
if
there’s
a
sudden
stop or
a
crash.
It’s possible that an automatic belt
could keep you from fully opening a
door. That can happen if the door was
slammed shut very hard. Just close the
door all the way, then slowly open it.
If
that doesn’t fix it, then your Chevrolet
needs service.
We hope you’ll always keep your
automatic belt buckled. However, you
may need to unbuckle it in an
emergency.
To unbuckle the automatic belt, just
push the button on the buckle.
