When using a child restraint system, follow the installation and use instructions below, as well as the recommendations of the system manufacturer.
Always follow local or national laws and regulations. In some countries, the installation of child seats is prohibited in some places.
Warning: It is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to use a child safety seat on a seat with an ACTIVATED AIR BAG in front of it! Risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH to the child!
Warning: WARNING! - EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! Do not install a rear-facing child seat on a seat equipped with an airbag. When the airbag inflates, it is possible to cause serious injury to the child, as the child's head will be very close to the inflating airbag.
Warning: When using a child restraint seat on the front passenger seat, the airbag systems for the front passenger seat must be switched off; if this is not done, then when deployed, the airbags create a mortal danger to the child. This is especially true if a rear-facing child safety seat is used on the front passenger seat.
Choosing the Right System
The rear seats are the most convenient location for child seat attachment systems.
If possible, the child should be transported backwards. At the same time, the fragile spine of the child is subjected to less stress in the event of an accident.
Children under 12 years of age and shorter than 150 cm are only allowed in the car in child safety seats. Child seats that comply with ECE 44-03 or ECE 44-04 are permitted. Proper seat belt position is almost impossible for children under 150 cm tall, so we strongly recommend using a suitable child seat, even when this is not required due to the child's age.
While the car is in motion, it is not allowed to hold the child in your arms. At the moment of collision, the force of inertia acting on it greatly increases the weight of the child, so it will be impossible to keep it.
For the transport of children, it is necessary to use safety systems appropriate to their body weight.
Make sure that the child restraint system you are installing is compatible with the mounting system used in the vehicle.
Make sure you have chosen the correct location for the child restraint system.
Boarding children in the car should be carried out only from the sidewalk.
When the child seat is not in use, secure it with a seat belt or remove it from the vehicle.
Note: Child restraint systems must not be glued or covered with any other materials.
After an accident, an activated child restraint system must be replaced.
Make sure infants and children in the rear seats are in child seats.
While children cannot use seat belts, select and be sure to use child restraints that are appropriate for their age. Read the instructions for the child seat you are using.
