General Mciïore, therelore. recQnnmends that child
restraints be secured in a ro-ar seat Including an infant
riding in a rear-facing infant seal, a child riding In a
fûiward-facing child seaE and an elder child riding in a
booElor seal. Never put a child In a rear-facing child
reslralnl in fhe right inûm passenger seat unless
your vehicle has the passenger sensing systara and-'or
an AIR BAG OFF switch and the air bag status
Indicator shows off. Never put a rear facing child
restraint In ihe right front passenger seat unless ihe air
bag is eff. Here's why
A CAUTION:
A child fn 3 rear-facing child reslraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passengers air bag inflates. This is because the
back of the rear-facing child realraint would be
very close to the inttsting air bag. Be sure the air
bag is off before using a rear-facing child
restraint in the right front seat position.
CAUTION; {Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Even though the Passenger sensing System
and/or AIR BAG OFF switch are designed to
turn off the passenger's frontal air beg under
certain conditions, no system is fail-safe^ and
no one can guarantee that an air bag will not
deploy under sorr№ unusual circumstance,
even though it is turned off. General Motors
therefore racommenejs that rear-facing child
restraints be transported in vehicles with a
rear seat that will accommodate a rear-facing
child restraint, whenever possible.
if you secure a forward-facing child restraint in
the right front seat, always move the front
passenger seat as far back as it wilt go. It Is
better to secure the child restraint in a rear seat.
There is limlied space In ihe rear seating area of an
extended cab modef. If you need to secure a child
restraint In a mar sealing position oE an extended cah
model, especially in ihe rear center posiElon, be
sure to study Ihe Instructions thal came with your child
restraml to sea If there is enough rooiri to secure
your seat propedy.
