A
child in a child restraint in the center front seat
can be badly injured by the right front passenger
air
bag if it inflates. Never secure a child restraint
in the center front seat.
It’s
always
better to
secure a child restraint in the rear seat.
You
may,
however, secure
a
forward-facing child restraint
in the right front passenger seat, but only with
the seat moved all the
way
back.
Wherever you install it, 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.
Top
Strap
If
your child restraint has a
top
strap,
it
should be
anchored. If you need to have an anchor installed, you
can ask your Buick dealer to put
it
in
for you. If you
want to install an anchor yourself, your dealer can tell
you how to do it.
Canadian law requires that child restraints have
a
top
strap, and that the strap be anchored.
