Air Bag System - Chevrolet 2004 Express Van Owner's Manual

CAUTION:
{
If the air bag readiness light ever comes on
when you have turned off the air bag, it means
that something may be wrong with the air bag
system. The right front passenger's air bag
could inflate even though the switch is off. If
this ever happens, don't let anyone whom the
national government has identified as a
member of a passenger air bag risk group sit
in the right front passenger's position (for
example, don't secure a rear-facing child
restraint in your vehicle) until you have your
vehicle serviced. See "Air Bag Off Switch" in
the Index.
1-62
If your child restraint does not have the LATCH system,
you'll be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow the
instructions that came with the child restraint. Secure
the child in the child restraint when and as the
instructions say.
1. If your vehicle has a passenger air bag and an air
bag off switch, and you are using a rear-facing child
restraint in this seat, make sure the air bag is
turned off. See Air Bag Off Switch on page 1-72. If
your child restraint is forward-facing, always
move the seat as far back as it will go before
securing it in this seat. See Power Seat on page 1-4
or Manual Seats on page 1-3.
2. Put the restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle's safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
