w WARNING
• Do not use an infant carrier or a
child seat on the front seat. It may
lead to serious injuries or even
death in the event of an accident.
• After installing the child restraint
system, make sure it is restrained
securely. If not, it may cause serious
injury or even death to the child
in the event of a sudden stop or
accident.
• Never let children play with the seat
belt. The seat belt can get entangled
around the child's neck and leads
to choking or other serious injuries
that could result in death. If this
should happen inadvertently and
the buckle of the seat belt cannot
be unfastened, cut the seat belt
with scissors or the like.
When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it somewhere other than the passenger
compartment. This will prevent it from injuring
passengers in the event of a sudden stop
or accident.
Child restraint systems are classified into the
following 5 groups according to the regulation
ECE No.44
