1–22 BEFORE DRIVING YOUR CAR
NOTE
If the belt locks when being pulled
out, rewind it completely in the re-
tractor, then pull it out to the desired
length.
THREE POINT SEAT BELT
Each Daewoo vehicle is equipped with three
point seat belts with automatic retractors, al-
lowing freedom of body movement when
driving at even, constant speeds, although
the spring-tensional belts are always a snug
fit.
The belt has a "vehicle sensitive retractor"
which is designed to lock during heavy ac-
celeration or deceleration.
Do not attempt to test the locking device by
intentionally "shooting" your upper torso in
the forward direction.
This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to
the movement of wearer, but in the event of
a sudden or strong shock, the belt automati-
cally locks to restrain the wearer's body.
Using the Belt
Pull the belt evenly out of the retractor and
guide it across the body, making certain that
it is not twisted.
Insert the metal latch plate "1" into the buckle
"2".
