Child Restraints; Older Children - GMC Express 2011 Owner's Manual

If an airbag inflates, you will need
to replace airbag system parts.
See your dealer for service.
If the airbag readiness light stays on
after the vehicle is started or comes
on when you are driving, the airbag
system may not work properly.
Have the vehicle serviced right
away. See Airbag Readiness Light
on page 5 17 for more information.

Child Restraints

Older Children

Older children who have outgrown
booster seats should wear the
vehicle safety belts.
The manufacturer's instructions
that come with the booster seat
state the weight and height
limitations for that booster.
Seats and Restraints
Use a booster seat with a
lap-shoulder belt until the child
passes the fit test below:
Sit all the way back on the seat.
Do the knees bend at the seat
edge? If yes, continue. If no,
return to the booster seat.
Buckle the lap-shoulder belt.
Does the shoulder belt rest on
the shoulder? If yes, continue.
If no, try using the rear safety
belt comfort guide. See Rear
Safety Belt Comfort Guides
under Lap-Shoulder Belt on
page 3 18 for more information.
If the shoulder belt still does not
rest on the shoulder, then return
to the booster seat.
Does the lap belt fit low and
snug on the hips, touching the
thighs? If yes, continue. If no,
return to the booster seat.
Can proper safety belt fit be
maintained for the length of the
trip? If yes, continue. If no,
return to the booster seat.
