Chevrolet Avalanche Owner's Manual page 53

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.
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.
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. General Motors recommends that
rear-facing child restraints be secured in the
rear seat, even if the airbag is off.
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 Power Seats on page 1-2 or Manual
Passenger Seat on page 1-2.
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on page 1-42.
There is no top strap anchor in the right front
passenger's position. Do not secure a child seat in this
position if a national or local law requires that the
top strap be anchored, or if the instructions that come
with the child restraint say that the top strap must
be anchored. See Top Strap on page 1-40 if your child
restraint has one.
