"Standard of the World:'
In 1909 Cadillac was purchased
by the then new General Motors
Corporation. Convenience, clean-
liness and all-weather comfort were
greatly enhanced in
1910 when Cad-
illac became
the first manufacturer
to offer closed bodies as standard
equipment.

of The Saturday Evening Post

mitment to leadership, quality, and
innovation.

Air bags inflate with great force, faster than the blink of an eye.
If you’re too close to an inflating air bag, it could seriously
injure
you. Safety belts help keep you in position for an air bag
inflation in a crash. Always wear your safety belt, even with an
air bag, and the driver
should sit as far back as possible while
still maintaining control of the vehicle.
A CAUTION:
An inflating air bag can seriously injure small chiIdren. Always
secure children properly in your vehicle. Tu read how, see the
“Children
and Safety Belts’’ section of this manual, and read
the caution
label on the front-passenger% safety belt.

There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument panel. The system

Be sure to follow the instructions for the restraint. You may find these
instructions
on the restraint itself or in a booklet, or both. These
restraints use the belt system in your vehicle, but the child also has to be
secured within the restraint to help reduce the chance
of personal injury.
The instructions that come with the infant or child restraint will show you
how to do that.
?+%ere to Put the Restraint
Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in
the rear rather than the front seat. We at General Motors therefore
recommend that
you put your child restraint in the rear seat. NEVER put
a rear-facing child restraint in the front passenger seat. Here’s
why:
A CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured
if the right-front passenger’s air bag inflates, This is because
the back of a rear-facing child restraint would be very close to
the
inflating air bag. If your vehicle has a right-frunt
passenger’s air bag, always secure a rear-facing child restraint
in the rear seat,
You may secure a fonvard-facing child restraint in the right
front seat, However, before securing a forward-facing chitd
restraint, ALWAYS move the frornt passenger seat as far back
as it will go. Or, secure the child restraint in the rear seat.
CAUTION:
A child in B child restraint in the frontenter seat can be
badly injured by the passenger air bag if it inflates. NWEK
use a child restraint in the fmnt-center seat. It’s ahvays better
to secure a child restmint in the rcar seat, You may, howeiq
secure a forward-facing child restraint in the right-front
passenger seat unty with the seat moved all the way back

Wherever you install it, be sure to secure the child restraint properly.
A CAUTION:'
An unsecured child restraint can move around in a collision or
sudden stop and i@ure people in the vehicle. Be sure to
properly secure any child restmint in your vehicle v- even when
na.ehild is in it.
Top Strap
I If your child restraint
' has a top strap, it
~ should be anchored.
If you need to have an anchor installed,
you can ask your Cadillac dealer
to put it in for you. If you want to install an anchor yourself, your dealer
can tell you how to do it.

Vehicles first sold in Canada have child restraint anchor bracket hardware
in the glove box, along with instructions for installing it. This should be
used only with a child restraint, and only to secure a child restraint at the
center rear seating position. Additional anchor brackets for child
restraints at one or both of the rear outside seating positions are available
at Cadillac dealerships in Canada.
