2023 CADILLAC LYRIC warning

Cadillac Lyriq Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-15644413) -
2023 - CRC - 2/23/22
80 Seats and Restraints
Warning (Continued)
Secure rear-facing child
restraints in a rear seat,
even if the airbag is off.
If you secure a
forward-facing child
restraint in the front seat,
always move the front
passenger seat as far back
as it will go. It is better to
secure the child restraint in
a rear seat.
See Passenger Sensing
System066 for additional
information.
When securing a child
restraint with the seat belts in
a rear seat position, study the
instructions that came with
the child restraint to make
sure it is compatible with this
vehicle. Child restraints and booster
seats vary considerably in size,
and some may fit in certain
seating positions better than
others. Do not install a child
restraint in any rear seating
position where it cannot be
installed securely.
Depending on where you place
the child restraint and the size
of the child restraint, you may
not be able to access adjacent
seat belts or LATCH anchors
for additional passengers or
child restraints. Adjacent
seating positions should not
be used if the child restraint
prevents access to or
interferes with the routing of
the seat belt.
The seat in front of an
installed child restraint should
be adjusted to ensure proper
installation according to the
child restraint manual.Wherever a child restraint is
installed, be sure to follow the
instructions that came with
the child restraint and secure
the child restraint properly.
Keep in mind that an
unsecured child restraint can
move around in a collision or
sudden stop and injure people
in the vehicle. Be sure to
properly secure any child
restraint in the vehicle
—even
when no child is in it.
Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children
(LATCH System)
The LATCH system secures a
child restraint during driving or
in a crash. LATCH
attachments on the child
restraint are used to attach
the child restraint to the
anchors in the vehicle. This
system is designed to make
installation of a child restraint
easier.

anchor directly behind the
seating position where the
child restraint will be placed.
Do not secure a child restraint
in a position without a top
tether anchor if a national or
local law requires that the top
tether be attached, or if the
instructions that come with
the child restraint say that the
top tether must be attached.
According to accident
statistics, children and infants
are safer when properly
restrained in a child restraint
system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear
seating position. See Where to
Put the Restraint079 for
additional information.Securing a Child Restraint
Designed for the LATCH
System
{Warning
A child could be seriously
injured or killed in a crash if
the child restraint is not
properly attached to the
vehicle using either the
LATCH anchors or the
vehicle seat belt. Follow the
instructions that came with
the child restraint and the
instructions in this manual.
{Warning
To reduce the risk of serious
or fatal injuries during a
crash, do not attach more
than one child restraint to a
single anchor. Attaching
more than one child
restraint to a single anchor
could cause the anchor or
attachment to come loose or

Warning (Continued)
even break during a crash.
A child or others could be
injured.
{Warning
Children can be seriously
injured or strangled if a
shoulder belt is wrapped
around their neck. The
shoulder belt can tighten but
cannot be loosened if it is
locked. The shoulder belt
locks when it is pulled all the
way out of the retractor.
It unlocks when the shoulder
belt is allowed to go all the
way back into the retractor,
but it cannot do this if it is
wrapped around a child’s
neck. If the shoulder belt is
locked and tightened around
a child’s neck, the only way
to loosen the belt is to cut it.(Continued)

86 Seats and Restraints
Warning (Continued)
Buckle any unused seat
belts behind the child
restraint so children cannot
reach them. Pull the
shoulder belt all the way out
of the retractor to set the
lock, and tighten the belt
behind the child restraint
after the child restraint has
been installed.
Caution
Do not let the LATCH
attachments rub against the
vehicle’s seat belts. This may
damage these parts.
If necessary, move buckled
seat belts to avoid rubbing
the LATCH attachments.
Do not fold the rear
seatback when the seat is
occupied. Do not fold the
empty rear seat with a seat
belt buckled. This could(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
damage the seat belt or the
seat. Unbuckle and return
the seat belt to its stowed
position, before folding
the seat.
If you need to secure more
than one child restraint in the
rear seat, see Where to Put
the Restraint 079.
1. Attach and tighten the lower attachments to the
lower anchors. If the child
restraint does not have
lower attachments or the
desired seating position
does not have lower
anchors, secure the child
restraint with the top tether
and the seat belt. Refer to
the child restraint
manufacturer instructions
and the instructions in this
manual.
1.1. Find the lower anchors for the desired seating
position. 1.2. Put the child restraint
on the seat.
1.3. Attach and tighten the lower attachments on
the child restraint to the
lower anchors.
2. If the child restraint manufacturer recommends
that the top tether be
attached, adjust the top
tether to its full length and
attach it to the anchor.
Refer to the child restraint
instructions and the
following steps:
2.1. Find the top tether anchor.
2.2. Route, attach and tighten the top tether
according to your child
restraint instructions
and the following
instructions:

There should be no more
than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement, for proper
installation.
Replacing LATCH
System Parts After a
Crash
{Warning
A crash can damage the
LATCH system in the
vehicle. A damaged LATCH
system may not properly
secure the child restraint,
resulting in serious injury or
even death in a crash. To
help make sure the LATCH
system is working properly
after a crash, see your
dealer to have the system
inspected and any
necessary replacements
made as soon as possible.If the vehicle has the LATCH
system and it was being used
during a crash, new LATCH
system parts may be needed.
New parts and repairs may be
necessary even if the LATCH
system was not being used at
the time of the crash.
Securing Child
Restraints (With the
Seat Belt in the
Rear Seat)
When securing a child
restraint with the seat belts in
a rear seat position, study the
instructions that came with
the child restraint to make
sure it is compatible with this
vehicle.
If the child restraint has the
LATCH system, see Lower
Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System)
080
for how and where to install
the child restraint using
LATCH. If a child restraint is
secured in the vehicle using a seat belt and it uses a top
tether, see Lower Anchors
and Tethers for Children
(LATCH System)
080 for top
tether anchor locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether
anchor 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.
In Canada, the law requires
that forward-facing child
restraints have a top tether,
and that the tether be
attached.
If the child restraint or vehicle
seat position does not have
the LATCH system, you will be
using the seat belt to secure
the child restraint. Be sure to
follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint.

Seats and Restraints 91
Never put a rear-facing child
seat in the front. This is
because the risk to the
rear-facing child is so great if
the airbag deploys.
{Warning
A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint
would be very close to the
inflating airbag. A child in a
forward-facing child
restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag inflates and the
passenger seat is in a
forward position.
Even if the passenger
sensing system has turned
off the front outboard
passenger airbag(s), no(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
system is fail-safe. No one
can guarantee that an
airbag will not deploy under
some unusual circumstance,
even though the airbag(s)
are off.
Secure rear-facing child
restraints in a rear seat,
even if the airbag(s) are off.
If you secure a
forward-facing child
restraint in the front
outboard passenger seat,
always move the seat as far
back as it will go. It is better
to secure the child restraint
in a rear seat.
See Passenger Sensing
System066 for additional
information.
If the child restraint uses a top
tether, see Lower Anchors
and Tethers for Children
(LATCH System) 080 for top
tether anchor locations. Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether
anchor 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.
In Canada, the law requires
that forward-facing child
restraints have a top tether,
and that the tether be
attached.
When using the lap-shoulder
belt to secure the child
restraint in this position, follow
the instructions that came
with the child restraint and the
following instructions:
1. Move the seat as far back as it will go before securing
the forward-facing child
restraint. Move the seat
upward or the seatback to
an upright position,
if needed, to get a tight
installation of the child
restraint. There must be
