Child Restraint Systems - GMC Yukon 2007 Owner's Manual

CAUTION:
{
The body structure of a young child is
quite unlike that of an adult or older child,
for whom the safety belts are designed.
A young child's hip bones are still so
small that the vehicle's regular safety belt
may not remain low on the hip bones, as
it should. Instead, it may settle up around
the child's abdomen. In a crash, the belt
would apply force on a body area that is
unprotected by any bony structure. This
alone could cause serious or fatal injuries.
Young children always should be secured
in appropriate child restraints.

Child Restraint Systems

An infant car bed (A), a special bed made for use
in a motor vehicle, is an infant restraint system
designed to restrain or position a child on a
continuous flat surface. Make sure that the infant's
head rests toward the center of the vehicle.
