Child Restraints
Be sure to follow the instructions for the
restraint, You may find these instructions
on the restraint itself or in a booklet, or
both. These restraints use the belt system
in your vehicle, but the child also has to
be secured within the restraint to help
reduce the chance of personal injury.
Where to Put the Restraint
Accident statistics show that children are
safer if they are restrained in the rear
rather than the front seat. We at General
Motors therefore recommend that you put
your child restraint in the rear seat unless
the child is an infant and you're the only
adult
in
the vehicle. In that case, you
might want to secure
the
restraint in the
front seat where you can keep an eye on
the baby.
Wherev&'jTiTi 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.
