TRANSPORTING CHILDREN SAFELYFor optimal protection in the event
of a crash, all passengers must be seat-
ed and wearing adequate restraint sys-
tems.
This is even more important for chil-
dren.
This prescription is compulsory in all
EC countries according to EC Direc-
tive 2003/20/EC.
Compared with adults, their head is
proportionally larger and heavier than
the rest of the body, while the mus-
cles and bone structure are not com-
pletely developed. Therefore, correct
restraint systems are necessary, oth-
er then adult seat belts. SERIOUS DANGER: Never place cradle child’s seats not
facing the running direction on the front seat of vehicles
with passenger’s airbag, which during inflation could cause
serious injury, even mortal. You are advised to carry children always on
the rear seat, as this is the most protected position in the case of a crash.
In any case, child’ seats must absolutely not be fitted on the front seats
of vehicles with passenger’s airbag, which during inflation could cause
serious injury, even mortal, regardless of the seriousness of the crash
that triggered it. Children may be placed on the front seat of vehicles
fitted with passenger’s airbag deactivation. In this case, it is absolutely
necessary to check the warning light
Fon the instrument panel to
make sure that deactivation has actually taken place (see paragraph
F
RONT AND SIDE AIRBAGS AT ITEMFRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG). The front pas-
senger’s seat shall be adjusted in the most backward position to pre-
vent any contact between child’s seat and dashboard.
