Chevrolet Malibu Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-
14584249) - 2021 - CRC - 4/23/20
Seats and Restraints 31
Warning (Continued)
The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. Instead, it will be in front of
you. In a crash, you could go into it,
receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there,
not at your pelvic bones. This could cause
serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is
in motion, have the seatback upright.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear
the seat belt properly.
Do not have a seatback reclined if the
vehicle is moving.

Warning
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.
To recline a manual seatback:
1. Lift the lever.
2. Move the seatback to the desired
position, and then release the lever to
lock the seatback in place.
3. Push and pull on the seatback to make
sure it is locked.
To return the seatback to the upright
position:
1. Lift the lever fully without applying
pressure to the seatback, and the
seatback will return to the upright
position.
2. Push and pull on the seatback to make
sure it is locked.
