SEAT-BELT PRECAUTIONS
To protect you and your passengers in the
event of an accident, it is recommended
that the seat-belts be worn by all occu-
pants whilst the vehicle is in use. Seat-
belts should be worn correctly.
Rear passengers not wearing seat-belts
are a danger to the driver and front pas-
senger in the event of an accident.
The seat-belts are designed to be used
by only one person at a time : they are
not suitable for use by children below 6
years of age. Suitable child seats, booster
cushions should be fitted.
WARNING
0-1 -----~
To reduce the likelihood of injury to
both the pregnant woman and the un-
born child, the lap belts should be
worn
as
low
as
possible when
pregnant.

CAUTION

I
The seat-belt will provide maximum
protection for its wearer if the seat
back is adjusted to a fully upright
position. When the seat back is re-
clined, there is a greater risk that the
passenger will slide under the belt,
especially in a forward impact, and
may be injured by the belt or by
striking the instrument panel.
CAUTION
NEVER
Wear the shoulder belt under the
arm nearest the door.
Use a belt for more than one per-
son at a time.
Wear the belts twisted or with the
buckle release button facing down-
ward or inward.
Let the belt system become dam-
aged by a door or seat.
Put anything into the opening where
the safety belt passes through the
trim panel. This may jam the retrac-
tor or damage the belt.

THREE-POINT SEAT-BELTS
Each Daewoo vehicle is equipped with
three-point seat-belts with automatic
retractors, allowing freedom of body
movement when driving at even, constant
speeds, although the spring-tensioned
belts are always a snug fit.
This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to
the movement of the wearer, but in the
event of a sudden or strong shock, the belt
automatically locks to restrain the wearer's
body.
