Chevrolet Silverado Classic 2007 Owner's Manual page 87

CAUTION:
{
Airbags inflate with great force, faster than
the blink of an eye. If you are too close to
an inflating airbag, as you would be if you
were leaning forward, it could seriously
injure you. Safety belts help keep you in
position before and during a crash.
Always wear your safety belt, even with
airbags. The driver should sit as far
back as possible while still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
CAUTION:
{
Anyone who is up against, or very close to,
any airbag when it inflates can be seriously
injured or killed. Airbags plus lap-shoulder
belts offer the best protection for adults,
but not for young children and infants.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Neither the vehicle's safety belt system
nor its airbag system is designed for
them. Young children and infants need the
protection that a child restraint system can
provide. Always secure children properly
in your vehicle. To read how, see Older
Children on page 42 and Infants and
Young Children on page 45.
The system checks the airbag electrical system
for malfunctions. The light tells you if there is
an electrical problem. See Airbag Readiness
Light on page 245 for more information.
There is an airbag
readiness light on
the instrument panel
cluster, which shows
the airbag symbol.
