Securing A Child Restraint Designed For The Latch System - GMC 2010 Sierra Denali Owner's Manual

Crew Cab Shown
The top tether anchors are the loops located near the
top of the seatback for each rear seating position.
These loops will be used to route the top tether through,
as well as, to secure the top tether in the vehicle. Be
sure to use an anchor (loop) located on the same side
of the vehicle as the seating position where the child
restraint will be placed.
Be sure to read the instructions below to properly install
a child restraint using these loops.
2-46
Do not secure a child restraint in a position without a
top tether anchor if a national or local law requires that
the top tether be attached, or if the instructions that
come with the child restraint say that the top tether must
be attached.
Accident statistics show that children are safer if they
are restrained in the rear rather than the front seat. See
Where to Put the Restraint on page 2 42 for additional
information.
Securing a Child Restraint Designed for the
LATCH System
WARNING:
If a LATCH-type child restraint is not attached to
anchors, the child restraint will not be able to
protect the child correctly. In a crash, the child
could be seriously injured or killed. Install a
LATCH-type child restraint properly using the
anchors, or use the vehicle's safety belts to
secure the restraint, following the instructions that
came with the child restraint and the instructions
in this manual.
