ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child’s protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts
or the child seat harnesses keeping
the slack in relation to the child’s
body to a minimum, even for short
journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for-
w a r d f a c i n g " c h i l d s e a t , e n s u r e t h a t
the back of the child seat is in contact
w i t h t h e b a c k o f t h e v e h i c l e ’ s s e a t
and that the head restraint does not
cause any discomfort.
I f t h e h e a d r e s t r a i n t h a s t o b e r e m o v e d ,
ensure that it is stored or attached se-
c u r e l y t o p r e v e n t i t f r o m b e i n g t h r o w n
around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Children under the age of 10 must not
t r a v e l i n t h e " f o r w a r d f a c i n g " p o s i t i o n
o n t h e f r o n t p a s s e n g e r s e a t , u n l e s s
the rear seats are already occupied
b y o t h e r c h i l d r e n , c a n n o t b e u s e d o r
are absent.
D i s a r m t h e p a s s e n g e r a i r b a g w h e n
a "rear facing" child seat is installed
o n t h e f r o n t s e a t . O t h e r w i s e , t h e c h i l d
w o u l d r i s k b e i n g s e r i o u s l y i n j u r e d o r
k i l l e d i f t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n l a t e .
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child’s shoulder
w i t h o u t t o u c h i n g t h e n e c k .
Ensure that the lap part of the seat
belt passes correctly over the child’s
thighs.
