Where To Put The Restraint - Chevrolet 2007 Kodiak Owner's Manual

Where to Put the Restraint

(Regular Cab Models)
If your vehicle is a regular cab model with an
air-suspension seat in the right front passenger's
position, there is no place in your vehicle to
secure a child restraint. The only answer is to have
smaller children make the trip in another vehicle,
where they can get the protection they need.
CAUTION:
{
A child restraint cannot be secured
properly in an air-suspension type seat.
This is because an air-suspension seat
is designed to move up and down for
an adult passenger. Do not use a child
restraint in an air-suspension seat.
If your vehicle is a regular cab model with a static
seat in the right front passenger's position, or if it
has a bench seat, the child restraint must be
secured properly in the right front passenger's seat.
54
If your vehicle has airbags and you need to secure
a child restraint in the right front passenger's seat,
there is a switch on the instrument panel that you
can use to turn off the passenger's airbag. See
Airbag Off Switch on page 76 and Securing a
Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position
on page 63 for more on this, including important
safety information.
Unless the passenger's airbag has been turned
off, never put a rear-facing child restraint in
this vehicle. Here is why:
CAUTION:
{
A child in a rear-facing child restraint
can be seriously injured or killed if the
passenger's airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the rear-facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inflating airbag. Do not use a rear-facing
child restraint in this vehicle unless the
passenger's airbag has been turned off.
