2007 CHEVROLET UPLANDER seats

If your vehicle does not have a rear seat that will
accommodate a rear-facing child restraint,
never put a child in a rear-facing child restraint in
the right front passenger seat the unless
passenger airbag status indicator shows off. Never
put a rear facing child restraint in the right front
passenger seat unless the airbag is off. Here
is why:
{CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can
be seriously injured or killed if the right
front passenger’s airbag inates. This is
because the back of the rear facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inating airbag. Be sure the airbag is off
before using a rear-facing child restraint
in the right front seat position.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Even though the passenger sensing
system is designed to turn off the
passenger’s frontal airbag and side
impact airbag (if equipped) if the system
detects a rear-facing child restraint, no
system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an airbag will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off. We recommend
that rear-facing child restraints be
transported in vehicles with a rear seat
that will accommodate a rear-facing child
restraint, whenever possible.
If you need to secure a forward-facing child
restraint in the right front seat position, move the
seat as far back as it will go before securing
the forward-facing child restraint. SeeManual
Seats on page 9orPower Seats on page 10.

If your child restraint has the LATCH system, see
Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children
(LATCH) on page 70.
There is no top tether anchor at the right front
seating position. Do not secure a child seat in this
position if a national or local law requires that
the top tether be anchored or if the instructions
that come with the child restraint say that the top
tether must be anchored. SeeLower Anchors
and Tethers for Children (LATCH) on page 70if
your child restraint has a top tether.
You will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure
the child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow
the instructions that came with the child restraint.
Secure the child in the child restraint when and as
the instructions say.1. Your vehicle has a right front passenger’s
airbags. SeePassenger Sensing System
on page 106. We recommend that rear-facing
child restraints be secured in a rear seat,
even if the airbag or airbags are off. If your
child restraint is forward-facing, move the seat
as far back as it will go before securing the
child restraint in this seat. SeeManual
Seats on page 9orPower Seats on page 10.
When the passenger sensing system has
turned off the right front passenger’s airbag or
airbags, the off indicator in the passenger
airbag status indicator should light and stay lit
when you turn the ignition to RUN or
START. SeePassenger Airbag Status
Indicator on page 235.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and
shoulder portions of the vehicle’s safety belt
through or around the restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show you how.

13. Adjust the position of the harness on the
child’s shoulder by moving the clip along
the harness until it is level with the child’s
armpits. On each side of the harness,
the shoulder part should be centered on the
child’s shoulder. The harness should be away
from the child’s face and neck, but not
falling from the child’s shoulders.
If you expect that the child will sleep while
riding, you can recline the seatback. See
Bucket Seats on page 13.

Q:Because I have a disability, I have to get
my vehicle modied. How can I nd out
whether this will affect my airbag system?
A:Changing or moving any parts of the
front seats, safety belts, the airbag sensing
and diagnostic module, steering wheel,
the instrument panel, or airbag wiring can
affect the operation of the airbag system. If
you have questions, call Customer Assistance.
The phone numbers and addresses for
Customer Assistance are in Step Two of the
Customer Satisfaction Procedure in this
manual. SeeCustomer Satisfaction Procedure
on page 556.
Restraint System Check
Checking the Restraint Systems
Now and then, make sure the safety belt reminder
light and all your belts, buckles, latch plates,
retractors and anchorages are working properly. If
your vehicle has a built-in child restraint, also
periodically make sure the harness straps, latch
plates, buckle, clip, child head restraint and
anchorages are working properly. Look for any
other loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If
you see anything that might keep a safety belt
system from doing its job, have it repaired. See
Care of Safety Belts and Built-in Child Restraint
Harness on page 520for more information.
Torn or frayed safety belts may not protect you in
a crash. They can rip apart under impact forces.
If a belt is torn or frayed, get a new one right away.

Storage Areas
Your vehicle’s large carrying capacity can store
many items. If the vehicle has an extended
wheelbase, it can carry even larger items. The
oor pins that are used to attach the seats, can be
used to secure larger loads.
Glove Box
If the glove box has a lock, put your key into the
lock and turn the key counterclockwise. To
open the glove box, pull the latch release.
The glove box door has a detent to prevent the
door from lowering too far. Open the glove
box until the door is partway open, then pull the
door down if you need it fully opened.
To close the glove box, the door must be pushed
up past the detent. To lock the glove box, put
your key into the lock and turn the key clockwise.
Cupholder(s)
There are cupholders located below the center
instrument panel switchbank. The cupholders have
a rubber liner that can be removed, so that
larger cups can t into the cupholders. You can
also remove the liner to clean it.
To use the cupholders, pull the tray out. Push the
tray back when not in use.
Your vehicle may be equipped with cupholders in
the second row.

on the front console below the front cupholders.
Pull up and then forward on the handle to open the
storage compartment.
Folding Tray
Your vehicle may be
equipped with folding
convenience trays
located between seats.
To use each tray lift up
on the handle located on
its front end, while
pulling up on the tray to
lock it into place. There
are four cupholders on
each tray.

use the following procedure to remove or install
the console.

Replacing the Center Console
{CAUTION:
A second row center console that is not
locked into place properly can move
around in a crash or sudden stop. People
in the vehicle could be injured. Be sure to
lock the console into place properly when
installing it.
1. Position the second row center console above
the forward oor attachments between the
second row bucket seats.
For information on installing the seats, see
Rear Seat Operation on page 13.
2. Place the console’s front hooks onto the
forward oor attachments.
3. Locate the attachment lever at the rear of the
console and pull up.
4. Rock the rear attachment bracket onto the
oor attachment and release the lever.

attachment hook is latched.
Luggage Carrier
{CAUTION:
If you try to carry something on top of
your vehicle that is longer or wider than
the luggage carrier — like paneling,
plywood, a mattress and so forth — the
wind can catch it as you drive along. This
can cause you to lose control. What you
are carrying could be violently torn off,
and this could cause you or other drivers
to have a collision, and of course damage
your vehicle. You may be able to carry
something like this inside. But, never
carry something longer or wider than the
luggage carrier on top of your vehicle.
If you have the luggage carrier, you can load
things on top of your vehicle. Crossrails are not
standard on this vehicle and must be purchased at
your dealer.
