7. If your child restraint manufacturer recommends
using a top tether and your vehicle is a Z06 model,
attach and tighten the top tether to the top tether
anchor. Refer to the instructions that came with the
child restraint and to Lower Anchors and Tethers
for Children (LATCH) (Z06 Models Only) on
page 1-30 or Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH) (Coupe and Convertible
Models Only) on page 1-34.
8. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
9. If the airbag is off, the off indicator in the inside
rearview mirror will be lit and stay lit when the
vehicle is started.
If a child restraint has been installed and the on
indicator is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove the child
restraint from the vehicle and reinstall the child restraint.
If after reinstalling the child restraint and restarting
the vehicle, the on indicator is still lit, check to make
sure that the vehicle's seatback is not pressing the child
restraint into the seat cushion. If this happens, slightly
recline the vehicle's seatback and adjust the seat
cushion if possible.

If the on indicator is still lit, do not secure a child
restraint in this vehicle and check with your dealer.
To remove the child restraint, if the top tether is attached
to the top tether anchor, disconnect it. Unbuckle the
vehicle's safety belt and let it go back all the way.
The safety belt will move freely again and be ready to
work for an adult or larger child passenger.

Airbag System

Your vehicle has a frontal airbag for the driver and a
frontal airbag for the passenger. Your vehicle may also
have a side impact airbag for the driver, and a side
impact airbag for the passenger.
If your vehicle has a side impact airbag for the driver
and/or right front passenger, the word AIRBAG will
appear on the airbag covering on the side of the
seatback closest to the door.
Frontal airbags are designed to help reduce the risk of
injury from the force of an inflating frontal airbag.
But these airbags must inflate very quickly to do their
job and comply with federal regulations.
