Cadillac Escalade Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-
12460268) - 2019 - CRC - 4/18/18
116 SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
If the head restraint was removed for
a third row outboard seating position,
reinstall it before the seating position
is used. See “Head Restraint Removal
and Reinstallation” under Lower
Anchors and Tethers for Children
(LATCH System) 0 106 for additional
information on reinstalling the head
restraint properly.
Securing Child Restraints
(With the Seat Belt in the
Front Seat)
This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is
a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. See
Where to Put the Restraint 0 105.
In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system which is
designed to turn off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
under certain conditions.
See Passenger Sensing System 0 93 and
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0 139
for more information, including
important safety information.
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 inf lates.
This is because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag.
A child in a for ward-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured or
killed if the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag inf lates
and the passenger seat is in a
forward position.
Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag,
no system is fail-safe. No one can
guarantee that an airbag will not

Warning (Continued)
deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though it is
turned off.
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 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 System 0 93
for additional information.
If the child restraint uses a top tether,
see Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 0 106 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.
