CHILD RESTRAINTS ..
., . .. .. I_
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

Top Strap
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.
For cars first sold in Canada, child restraints with a top strap must be
anchored according to Canadian Law.
Your dealer can obtain the hardware kit and install it for you, or you may
install it yourself using the instructions provided
in the kit.
Use the tether hardware kit available from the dealer. The hardware and
installation instructions were specifically designed for this vehicle.
