Recommendations
the legislation on carrying a child on the
f ront passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
the country in which you are driving.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag
when a rear ward facing child seat is installed
on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were deployed. For optimum installation of the forward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the child
seat is as close as possible to the backrest
of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.
the h
ead restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on the
passenger seat.
ens
ure that the head restraint is stowed or
attached securely so that it is not thrown
around the vehicle in the event of sharp
braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.
the i

ncorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat as this could
destabilise it.
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 the installation of a child seat using a
seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned
on the child seat and that it is holding the
child seat firmly against the seat of your
vehicle. If your front passenger seat is
adjustable, move it forward if necessary.
At the rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
-
a re

ar ward facing child seat,
-
th

e feet of a child seated in a for ward
facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat for ward and if
necessary straighten its backrest.
Children at the front
the chest part of the seat belt must be
p ositioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
ens

ure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.

eu

ge

e or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
a ch

ild or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
-
th

e keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
to pr

event accidental opening of the doors,

tak

e care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
to pr

otect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
