Chevrolet 2006 Express Van Owner's Manual page 62

If your vehicle does not have a rear seat that will
accommodate a rear-facing child restraint, never put a
child in a rear-facing child restraint in the right front
passenger seat the unless passenger airbag status
indicator shows off. Never put a rear facing child
restraint in the right front passenger seat unless the
airbag is off. Here is why:
CAUTION:
{
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger's airbag inflates. This is because
the back of the rear facing child restraint
would be very close to the inflating airbag.
Be sure the airbag is off before using a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front seat
position.

CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Even though the passenger sensing system is
designed to turn off the passenger's frontal
airbag if the system detects a rear-facing child
restraint, no system is fail-safe, and no one
can guarantee that an airbag will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off. We recommend that
rear-facing child restraints be transported
in vehicles with a rear seat that will
accommodate a rear-facing child restraint,
whenever possible.
If you need to secure a forward-facing child restraint in
the right front seat position, move the seat as far back
as it will go before securing the forward-facing child
restraint. See Manual Seats on page 1-2 or Power Seat
on page 1-3.
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH system,
see Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) on
page 1-42.
