Safety and Security

With a long history of setting automotive safety

milestones, GM is a world leader in safety research,

development and testing. The 1999 Lumina exemplifies

that dedication, providing a comprehensive system

that emphasizes crash avoidance, occupant protection

and security features.

CRASH AVOIDANCE FEATURES

• DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (DRL) turn on

automatically when the ignition is on and the

parking brake is disengaged, to help increase

Lumina visibility to other drivers. The DRL system

runs the headlamps at a reduced intensity

compared to regular headlamp operation.

• AUTOMATIC EXTERIOR LAMP CONTROL works with

Daytime Running Lamps and automatically activates

the headlamps and all other exterior lamps to full

intensity when light-sensitive sensors detect darkness

for more than 20 seconds. The exterior lamps will

shut off when the ignition is turned off.

• 4-WHEEL ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS),

standard on Lumina LS and LTZ and optional on Lumina

Sedan, automatically adjusts brake pressure to the

front and rear wheels during hard braking situations,

helping the driver maintain steering control by reducing

wheel lockup (see page 12 for more information).

• BRAKE/TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK, standard

on Lumina, requires drivers to depress the brake

pedal to shift out of Park.

• CENTER-MOUNTED HORN is easily activated by pressing

anywhere on the steering wheel hub pad.

OCCUPANT PROTECTION FEATURES

Standard occupant protection features:

• NEXT GENERATION DRIVER AND RIGHT FRONT-

PASSENGER AIR BAGS* inflate with reduced

speed and deployment force, helping to reduce

the risk of deployment injury. However, even with

Next Generation air bags, never place a rear-facing

infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle with

an active air bag.

• THREE-POINT SAFETY BELT SYSTEM helps restrain

outboard passengers by distributing forces to help

minimize injury.

• ADJUSTABLE FRONT SHOULDER SAFETY BELT

GUIDE LOOPS offer several positions for optimum

safety belt comfort.

• REINFORCED STEEL SAFETY-CAGE CONSTRUCTION

surrounds occupants with a cocoon-like system of

structural components. This structure consists of

reinforced roof rails, door pillars and side door

beams, which are designed to minimize intrusion

into the passenger compartment in shallow-angle

side impacts.

• FRONT AND REAR CRUSH ZONES are designed to

deform in a controlled manner in a collision to

absorb impact energy in order to reduce intrusion

into the passenger compartment.

• ENERGY-ABSORBING STEERING COLUMN AND

INSTRUMENT PANEL are designed to absorb

collision impact, to help reduce injury to the

driver’s body.

• CHILD SECURITY REAR-DOOR LOCKS when

engaged, prevent the rear doors from being

opened from the inside.

• REAR-SEAT SAFETY BELT CHILD COMFORT GUIDES

adjust the angle of the safety belt crossover, making

them more comfortable for older children or small

adults riding in the backseat.

• DUAL-MODE SAFETY BELT RETRACTORS, on rear

outboard safety belts, allow child seats to be

secured without hardware or clips.

†

• POWER WINDOW LOCKOUT when activated, gives

the driver complete control over window operation

(standard on Lumina LS and LTZ, optional on Lumina

Sedan).

*Always use safety belts and proper child restraints,even with Next

Generation air bags. See owner’s manual for more safety information.
