Child
Restraints
Be sure the child restraint is designed to be used in
a
vehicle. If it is, it will have a label saying that
it
meets
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Then follow the instructions for the restraint. You may
find these instructions on the restraint itself or in a
booklet, or both. These restraintsuse 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.
The child restraint must be secured properly in the
center (except
60/40
bench seat) or right front passenger
seat.
If
you
have a
60/40
split bench seat, you must use
the right front passenger seat.
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.
Top
Strap
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.
