the country you are in and that it can
be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an
approved Dealer to find out which
seats are recommended for your
vehicle.
The regulations on transporting
children are specific to each country.
The use of a child seat during
transport depends on the age and/or
the size and/or weight of the child. For
children who do not need to be
transported in a child seat, make sure
that the seat belt is correctly adjusted
and fastened. In all cases, you must
comply with the regulations of the
particular country you are in.
Before fitting a child seat, read the
manual and respect its instructions. If
you experience any difficulties during
installation, contact the manufacturer
of the equipment. Keep the
instructions with the seat.
Set a good example by
always fastening your seat
belt and teaching your
child:
– to strap themselves in correctly;
– to always get in and out of the
car at the kerb, away from busy
traffic.
Do not use a second-hand child
seat or one without an instruction
manual.
Check that there are no objects in
the vicinity of the child seat which
could impede its operation.
Never leave a child
unattended in the
vehicle.
Check that your child is
always strapped in and that the
belt or safety harness used is
correctly set and adjusted. Avoid
wearing bulky clothing which
could cause the belts to slacken.
For more information, please refer
to the information on "Seat belts"
in Section 1.
Never let your child put their head
or arms out of the window.
Check that the child is in the
correct position for the entire
journey, especially if asleep.
