Where To Put The Restraint - GMC Yukon 2007 Owner's Manual

Where to Put the Restraint

Accident statistics show that children are safer if
they are restrained in the rear rather than the front
seat. We recommend that child restraints be
secured in a rear seat, including an infant riding
in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding in a
forward-facing child seat and an older child riding
in a booster seat.
Your vehicle has a rear seat that will accommodate
a rear-facing child restraint. 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.

This is because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would be very
close to the inflating airbag.
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
