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.
Never
put a rear-facing
child restraint in the front passenger seat. Here’s why:
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.
