You will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow the
instructions that came with the child restraint. Secure
the child in the child restraint when and as the
instructions say.
1. Your vehicle has airbags. See Passenger Sensing
System on page 1-60. General Motors recommends
that rear-facing child restraints be secured in a
rear seat, even if the airbag or airbags are off. If
your child restraint is forward-facing, move the seat
as far back as it will go before securing the child
restraint in this seat. See Manual Passenger
Seat on page 1-2 or Power Seat on page 1-2.
When the passenger sensing system has turned off
the right front passenger’s frontal airbag and side
impact airbag (if equipped), the off indicator in
the passenger airbag status indicator should light
and stay lit when you turn the ignition to RUN
or START. See Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
on page 3-28.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Remove the safety belt from the guide on the head
restraint by sliding the webbing through the opening
on the guide. Do not secure the child restraint
with the safety belt routed through the guide.
4. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
5. Buckle the belt. Make sure the release button is
positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
