Securing A Child Restraint In The Center Front Seat Position; Securing A Child Restraint In The Right Front Seat Position - Chevrolet 2008 Avalanche Owner's Manual

Securing a Child Restraint in the
Center Front Seat Position
CAUTION:
{
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
Your 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 1-44.
In addition, your vehicle has 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 1-69
and Passenger Airbag Status Indicator on page 3-36 for
more information on this, including important safety
information.
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 airbag deploys.
