Your vehicle has a rear seat that will accommodate a
rear-facing child restraint. A label on your sun visor says,
“Never put a rear-facing child seat in the front.” This
is because the risk to the rear-facing child is so great, if
the air bag deploys.
{
CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
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.
Even though the passenger sensing system is
designed to turn off the passenger’s frontal air
bag if the system detects a rear-facing child
restraint, no system is fail-safe, and no one
can guarantee that an air bag will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off. General Motors
recommends that rear-facing child restraints
be secured in the rear seat, even if the air bag
is off.
The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off
the right front passenger’s frontal air bag if:
•
the right front passenger seat is unoccupied
•
the system determines that an infant is present in a
rear-facing infant seat
•
the system determines that a small child is present
in a forward-facing child restraint
•
the system determines that a small child is present
in a booster seat
•
a right front passenger takes his/her weight off of
the seat for a period of time
•
the right front passenger seat is occupied by a
smaller person, such as a child who has outgrown
child restraints
•
or if there is a critical problem with the air bag
system or the passenger sensing system.
When the passenger sensing system has turned off the
passenger’s frontal air bag, the off indicator will light
and stay lit to remind you that the air bag is off.
If a child restraint has been installed and the on indicator
is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove the child restraint
from the vehicle and reinstall the child restraint following
the child restraint manufacturer’s directions and refer
to
Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front
Seat Position on page 1-44.
