OnStar service is subject to the OnStar terms and conditions included in the OnStar Subscriber Information. OnStar service cannot work unless the vehicle is in a place where OnStar has an agreement with a wireless service provider for service in that area. OnStar service also cannot work unless the vehicle is in a place where the wireless service provider OnStar has hired for that area has coverage, network capacity and reception when the service is needed, and technology that is compatible with the OnStar service. Not all services are available everywhere, particularly in remote or enclosed areas, or at all times. The OnStar system can record and transmit vehicle information. This information is automatically sent to an OnStar call center when Q is pressed, ] is pressed, or if the airbags or ACR system deploy. This information usually includes the vehicle's GPS location and, in the event of a crash, additional information regarding the crash that the vehicle was involved in (e.g. the direction from which the vehicle was hit). When the virtual advisor feature of OnStar hands-free calling is used, the vehicle also sends OnStar the vehicle's GPS location so they can provide services where it is located. Location information about the vehicle is only available if the GPS satellite signals are unobstructed and available. The vehicle must have a working electrical system, including adequate battery power, for the OnStar equipment to operate. There are other problems OnStar cannot control that may prevent OnStar from providing OnStar service at any particular time or place. Some examples are damage to important parts of the vehicle in a crash, hills, tall buildings, tunnels, weather or wireless phone network congestion. 1-35 OnStar Steering Wheel Controls This vehicle may have a Talk/Mute button that can be used to interact with OnStar hands-free calling. See Audio Steering Wheel Controls on page 4‑143 for more information. On some vehicles, the mute button can be used to dial numbers into voice mail systems, or to dial phone extensions. See the OnStar Owner's Guide for more information. Your Responsibility Increase the volume of the radio if the OnStar advisor cannot be heard. If the light next to the OnStar buttons is red, the system may not be functioning properly. Press Q and request a vehicle diagnostic. If the light appears clear (no light is appearing), your OnStar subscription has expired and all services have been deactivated. Press Q to confirm that the OnStar equipment is active. 1-36 Section 2 Seats and Restraint System Head Restraints . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-3 Front Seats . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-4 Manual Seats . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-4 Power Seats . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-5 Manual Lumbar . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-6 Power Lumbar . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-7 Heated Seats . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-8 Memory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-8 Reclining Seatbacks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-10 Seatback Latches . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-13 Center Seat . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-13 Rear Seats . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-14 Rear Seat Operation (Extended Cab Full Bench) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-14 Rear Seat Operation (All Split Bench and Hybrid Full Bench) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-15 Safety Belts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-16 Safety Belts: They Are for Everyone . . . . . . . . . . . 2-16 How to Wear Safety Belts Properly . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-21 Lap-Shoulder Belt . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-30 Safety Belt Use During Pregnancy . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-37 Lap Belt (Crew and Extended Cab) . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-37 Safety Belt Extender . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-38 Child Restraints . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-39 Older Children . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-39 Infants and Young Children . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-42 Child Restraint Systems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-45 Where to Put the Restraint . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-48 Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-49 Securing a Child Restraint in a Rear Seat Position . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-58 Securing a Child Restraint in the Center Front Seat Position . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-61 Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position (With Passenger Sensing System) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-61 Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position (With Airbag Off Switch) . . . . . . . 2-65 Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position (Heavy Duty Crew Cab Only) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-70 2-1 Section 2 Seats and Restraint System Passenger Sensing System . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-86 Servicing Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle . . . . . . . 2-92 Adding Equipment to Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-92 Restraint System Check . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-94 Checking the Restraint Systems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-94 Replacing Restraint System Parts After a Crash . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-95 Airbag System . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-73 Where Are the Airbags? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-75 When Should an Airbag Inflate? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-78 What Makes an Airbag Inflate? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-79 How Does an Airbag Restrain? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-80 What Will You See After an Airbag Inflates? . . . 2-80 Airbag Off Switch . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2-82 2-2 Head Restraints The front seats have adjustable head restraints in the outboard seating positions. { WARNING: With head restraints that are not installed and adjusted properly, there is a greater chance that occupants will suffer a neck/spinal injury in a crash.
