Chevrolet 2002 Corvette, Owner'S Manual, Page: 51 / 384

1-39
CAUTION:
A child in a rear
-
facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the passenger’s
air bag inflates. This is because the back of
the rear
-
facing child restraint would be very
close to the inflating air bag. Do not use a
rear
-
facing child restraint in this vehicle unless
the passenger’s air bag has been turned off.
If a forward
-
facing child restraint is suitable
for your child, always move the passenger seat
as far back as it will go.
CAUTION:
If the air bag readiness light ever comes on when
you have turned off the air bag, it means that
something may be wrong with the air bag system.
The passenger’s air bag could inflate even though
the switch is off. If this ever happens, don’t let
anyone whom the national government has
identified as a member of a passenger air bag
risk group sit in the passenger’s position
(for example, don’t secure a rear
-
facing child
restraint in your vehicle) until you have your
vehicle serviced. See “Air Bag Off Switch” in
the Index.
