easier to properly install a child seat. LATCH stands
for Lower Anchors and Top tethers for CHildren. A
LATCH seat will install to specially designed retainer
hooks in your Sierra HD with an audible "click." You
can also install a top tether strap that helps limit

Air bag inflation can cause severe injury or death to anyone too close to the air bag when it deploys. Be sure every occupant is properly restrained. Always use safety belts and the correct child restraint for your child's age and size, even with air bags. Even in vehicles equipped with the Passenger
Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat in the appropriate infant, child or booster seat. Never place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle equipped with an active frontal air bag. See your vehicle Owner's Manual and child safety seat instructions for
more safety information.
