Chevrolet Colorado Owner Manual - 2012

Seats and Restraints

3-55

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 anchored, or if
the instructions that come with the
child restraint say that the top strap
must be anchored.

In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have
a top tether, and that the tether be
attached.

If your child restraint does not have
the LATCH system, you will be
using the safety 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.

If you need to install more than one
child restraint in the rear seat, be
sure to read Where to Put the
Restraint on page 3‑41
.

1. Put the child restraint on

the seat.

2. 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.

3. Push the latch plate into the

buckle until it clicks.

Make sure the release button is
positioned so you would be able
to unbuckle the safety belt
quickly if necessary.
