Child seats
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle  compromises  the  child's  protection  in Â
t
he  event  of  an  accident.
Check
 that  there  is  no  seat  belt  or  seat  belt Â
b
uckle  under  the  child  seat  as  this  could Â
de
stabilise
 i
t.
Remember
 to  fasten  the  seat  belts  or  the Â
c
hild  seat  harnesses  keeping the slack in
relation
 to  the  child's  body  to a minimum,
even
 for  short  journeys.
For
 the  installation  of  a  child  seat  using  a Â
s
eat  belt,  ensure  that  this  is  well  tensioned Â
o
n  the  child  seat  and  that  it  is  holding  the Â
c
hild  seat  firmly  against  the  seat  of  your Â
v
ehicle.  If  your  front  passenger  seat  is Â
a
djustable,  move  it  for ward  if  necessary.
at t
he rear seats, always leave sufficient
space
 between  the  front  seat  and:
-
Â
a
 rear ward  facing  child  seat,
-
Â
t
he  feet  of  a  child  seated  in  a  for ward Â
f
acing  child  seat.
Recommendations
For this, move the front seat for ward and if necessary  straighten  its  backrest.
For
 o
ptimum
 in
stallation
 o
f
 t
he
 fo
rward
 f
acing
 c
hild  seat,  ensure  that  the  back  of  the  child Â
s
eat  is  as  close  as  possible  to  the  backrest Â
o
f  the  vehicle's  seat,  or  in  contact  if  possible.
The
 head  restraint  must  be  removed  before Â
i
nstalling  a  child  seat  with  a  backrest  on  the Â
p
assenger
 sea
t.
Ensure
 that  the  head  restraint  is  stowed  or Â
a
ttached  securely  so  that  it  is  not  thrown Â
a
round  the  vehicle  in  the  event  of  sharp Â
b
raking.
Refit
 the  head  restraint  as  soon  as  the  child Â
s
eat  is  removed.Installing a booster

As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-  o ne  or  more  children  alone  and Â
u

i
s  exposed  to  the  sun,  with  the  windows Â
c
losed,
-
Â
t
he  keys  within  reach  of  children  inside Â
t
he  vehicle.
To
 prevent  accidental  opening  of  the  doors, Â
u
se  the  child  lock.
Take
 care  not  to  open  the  rear  windows  by Â
m
ore  than  one  third.
To
 protect  young  children  from  the  rays  of Â
t
he  sun,  fit  side  blinds  on  the  rear  windows.
The
 chest  part  of  the  seat  belt  must  be Â
p
ositioned  on  the  child's  shoulder  without Â
t
ouching  the  neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes  correctly  over  the  child's  thighs.
