Securing A Child Restraint In The Right Front - Chevrolet 2010 Colorado Owner's Manual

Securing a Child Restraint in the
Center Front Seat Position
WARNING:
A child in a child restraint in the center front seat
can be badly injured or killed by the frontal
airbags if they inflate. Never secure a child
restraint in the center front seat. It is always better
to secure a child restraint in a rear seat.
Do not use child restraints in the center front seat
position.
Securing a Child Restraint in the
Right Front Seat Position
This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is a safer place to
secure a forward-facing child restraint. See Where to
Put the Restraint on page 2 44.
In addition, the vehicle may have a passenger sensing
system which is designed to turn off the right front
passenger's frontal airbag under certain conditions.
See Passenger Sensing System on page 2 74 and
2-62
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator on page 4 23 for
more information on this, including important safety
information.
A label on the 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 airbag deploys.
WARNING:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger airbag inflates. This is because the
back of the rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag. A child in a
forward-facing child restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the right front passenger airbag
inflates and the passenger seat is in a forward
position.
The vehicle may have a passenger sensing
system which is designed to turn off the right front
passenger frontal airbag under certain conditions.
