GMC Cadillac CT5 2021 Manual page 82

Warning (Continued)
Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger airbag(s), no
system is fail-safe. No one can
guarantee that an airbag will not
deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though the
airbag(s) are off.
Secure rear-facing child restraints
in a rear seat, even if the airbag(s)
are off. If you secure a
forward-facing child restraint in the
front outboard passenger seat,
always move the seat as far back as
it will go. It is better to secure the
child restraint in a rear seat.
See Passenger Sensing System 0 60
for additional information.
If the child restraint uses a top tether,
see Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 0 72 for top
tether anchor locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor if
a national or local law requires that
the top tether be anchored, or if the
instructions that come with the child
restraint say that the top tether must
be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have a
top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
When using the lap-shoulder belt to
secure the child restraint in this
position, follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint and the
following instructions:
1. Move the seat as far back as it will
go before securing the
forward-facing child restraint. Move
the seat upward or the seatback to
an upright position, if needed, to
get a tight installation of the child
restraint.
When the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
and knee airbag, the OFF indicator
on the passenger airbag status
indicator should light and stay lit
when you start the vehicle. See
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
0 102.
SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the
lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle seat belt through or around
the child restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle
until it clicks.
Position the release button on the
buckle, away from the child
restraint, so that the seat belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.
