Where to Put the Restraint (Regular
Cab and Extended Cab Pickup)
The child restraint must be secured properly in the right
front passenger seat. If you want to secure a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front passenger's
seat, turn off the passenger's air bag. See
Air Bag
Off Switch on page 1-61andSecuring a Child Restraint
in the Right Front Seat Position on page 1-49for
more on this, including important safety information.
{CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger's air bag in¯ates. This is because
the back of the rear-facing child restraint
would be very close to the in¯ating air bag. Be
sure to turn off the air bag before using a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front seat
position.
Even though the AIR BAG OFF switch is
designed to turn off the passenger's frontal air
bag, no system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an air bag will not deploy under
some unusual circumstance, even though it is
turned off. General Motors therefore
recommends that rear-facing child restraints
be transported in vehicles with a rear seat that
will accommodate a rear-facing child restraint,
whenever possible.

Securing a Child Restraint in a
Center Seat Position
Don't use child restraints in these positions. The
restraints won't work properly.
Securing a Child Restraint in the
Right Front Seat Position
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, seeLower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on page 1-44.
Your vehicle has a passenger air bag. If your vehicle is
a regular cab pickup or an extended cab pickup,
there's a switch on the instrument panel that you can
use to turn off the right front passenger's air bag
when you want to secure a rear-facing child restraint at
the right front passenger's position. See
Air Bag Off
Switch on page 1-61for more on this, including
important safety information.
1-49

Unless your vehicle has the air bag off switch and the
passenger's air bag has been turned off, never put
a rear facing child restraint in the right front
passenger's seat.Here's why:
{CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger's air bag in¯ates. This is because
the back of the rear-facing child restraint
would be very close to the in¯ating air bag. If
your vehicle is a crew cab, do not use a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front
passenger's position. If your vehicle is a
regular cab pickup or an extended cab pickup,
be sure to turn off the air bag before using a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front seat
position.
Even though the AIR BAG OFF switch is
designed to turn off the passenger's frontal air
bag, no system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an air bag will not deploy under
