Where to Put the Restraint
CAUTION:   (Continued)
Accident statistics show that children  are safer if they
are restrained in the rear rather  than the front seat.
General Motors recommends that child  restraints
be secured in a rear  seat, including an infant riding in a
rear-facing infant seat, a child riding in a forward-facing
child seat and an older child  riding in a booster seat.
restraint, no system is fail-safe,  and no one
can guarantee that an airbag  will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off.  General Motors
recommends that rear-facing child restraints
be secured in the rear  seat, even if the airbag
is off.
Your vehicle has a rear seat that will accommodate
a rear-facing child restraint. A  label on your sun visor
says, “Never put a rear-facing child seat in the front.”
This is because the risk  to the rear-facing child is
so great, if the airbag  deploys.
If you need to secure  a forward-facing child
restraint in the right front  seat, always move
the front passenger seat as  far back as it will
go. It is better to  secure the child restraint in a
rear seat.

CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing  child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if  the right front
passenger’s airbag inflates. This is  because
the back of the rear-facing  child restraint
would be very close to  the inflating airbag.
Wherever you install a child  restraint, be sure to secure
the child restraint properly.
Keep in mind that an  unsecured child restraint can
move around in a collision  or sudden stop and injure
people in the vehicle. Be  sure to properly secure
any child restraint in your  vehicle — even when no child
is in it.
Even though the passenger sensing  system is
designed to turn off the  passenger’s frontal
airbag if the system detects  a rear-facing child
