Securing A Child Restraint In The Right Front Seat Position - Chevrolet 2005 Aveo Owner's Manual

Securing a Child Restraint in the
Right Front Seat Position
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on page 1-40.
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 1-38 if
the child restraint has one.
Your vehicle has a right front passenger airbag.
Never put a rear-facing child restraint in this seat.
Here is why:
1-46
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.
Always secure a rear-facing child restraint
in a rear seat.
A rear seat is a safer place to secure a forward-facing
child restraint. If you need to secure a forward-facing
child restraint in the right front seat, you will be using the
lap-shoulder belt to secure the child restraint. 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. Because your vehicle has a right front passenger
airbag, always move the seat as far back as it will
go before securing a forward-facing child restraint.
See Manual Seats on page 1-2.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
