WARNING (Continued)
Secure rear-facing child
restraints in a rear seat, even if
the airbag is off. If you 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.
See Passenger Sensing System
on page 330 for additional
information.
Rear-facing child restraints should
not be installed in the vehicle, even
if the airbag(s) are off.
If the child restraint has the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children (LATCH
System) (Coupe and Convertible
Models Only) on page 343 or
Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) (Z06 and
ZR1 Models Only) on page 344 for
how and where to install the child
restraint using LATCH. If a child
restraint is secured using a safety
belt and it uses a top tether, see
Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) (Coupe
and Convertible Models Only) on
page 343 or Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children (LATCH
System) (Z06 and ZR1 Models
Only) on page 344 for top tether
anchor locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor
if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be anchored, or if
the instructions that come with the
child restraint say that the top strap
must be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have
a top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
You will be using the lap-shoulder
belt to secure the child restraint in
this position. Follow the instructions
that came with the child restraint.
1. Move the seat as far back as
it will go before securing the
forward-facing child restraint.
When the passenger sensing
system has turned off the right
front passenger frontal airbag
and seat-mounted side impact
airbag (if equipped), the off
indicator on the passenger
airbag status indicator should
light and stay lit when you start
the vehicle. See Passenger
Airbag Status Indicator on
page 517.
2. Put the child restraint on
the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run
the lap and shoulder portions of
the vehicles safety belt through
or around the restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
