Belts
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. The
instructions that come with the infant or child restraint will show you how to
do that.
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.
Wherever
you
install it, be sure to secure the child restraint properly.
CAUTION
I
A
An unsecured child restraint can move around in a collision or
A
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.

55001
If
your child restraint has a top strap, it should be anchored.
If
you need to
have an anchor installed, you can ask your
GM
dealer to put it
in
for you.
If
you want to install an anchor yourself, your dealer can tell you how to do it.
