purpose. Please refer to Section “Seat
Belts” in this chapter for details.
The seat belt or child restraint system (child
safety seat) shall be used properly
according to the child’s age and size.
Holding the child in your arms or putting
them on your laps cannot replace the child
restraint system in terms of safety. In case
of traffic collision or emergency braking, the
children may impact the windscreen or be
squeezed by other passengers.
PROTON strongly recommends the use of
child restraint system appropriate to the
children body size, and installed in the rear
seat. According to the statistics of accidents,
it is safer for children to be seated in the rear
seats in their child restraint system, or for
larger children to be seated in the rear seats
and fastening seat belts correctly.
Never install the rear-facing child restraint
system in the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, in case of an accident, the rapid
deployment of the airbag may cause serious
injuries or even death to the child.
Unless absolutely necessary, the forward-
facing child restraint system cannot be
installed in the front seat. Due to the high
force generated by the fast deployment of
the front passenger airbag, the front
passenger seat shall be moved backward
as much as possible. Otherwise, airbag will
cause serious injuries or even death to the
child.
On vehicles equipped with side airbags and
side curtain airbags, do not let the child
leaning on or being around the door even if
a child is sitting in a child restraint system.
When the side airbag or side curtain airbag
deploy, its quick strong force will cause
serious injuries or death to the child.
Make sure to install devices correctly
according to all installation instructions
provided by the child restraint system
manufacturer. If the installation is not fixed
securely and emergency braking or
accidents occur, this may also cause
serious injuries or death to the child.
Infants and Younger Children
Everyone in the vehicle should be protected!
This includes infants and younger children.
Every passenger must use safety protection
device.
In any circumstances, do not leave
children in the vehicle unattended to
avoid them from playing with the switches
and seat belt. If the shoulder belt get twisted
around the neck of a child, the child may get
strangled and severely injured. The airbag
and lap/shoulder belt can provide protection
to adults and older children but not for
infants and younger children.
The seat belt system and the airbag system
of vehicle are not designed for protecting
infants or younger children. Infants or
younger children shall be protected with a
proper child restraint systems every time
they travel in vehicles. Child who is not
restrained properly may run into other
passengers or be thrown out of vehicle in
case of collision.
