GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

Below is a summary of the rules

of safety to be followed for car-

rying children:

1) The recommended position for

installing children’s seat is on the rear

seat, as it is the most protected in the

case of a crash.

Never fit child restraint

systems in the front pas-

senger seat in cars with

passenger airbag, children must

never be seated on front seats.

2) If the passenger’s air bag is deac-

tivated always check the warning light

F on the cluster to make sure that

it has actually been deactivated.

3) Attain to the instructions for fas-

tening the specific child restraint sys-

tem which you are using. These in-

structions must be provided by the

manufacturer. Keep the child restraint

system installation instructions with

the car documents and this Hand-

book. Never use a child restraint sys-

tem without installation instructions.

4) Always check the seat belt is well

fastened by pulling the webbing.

5) Only one child is to be strapped

to each retaining system.

6) Always check the seat belts do

not fit around the child’s throat.

7) While travelling, do not let the

child sit incorrectly or release the

belts.

8)  Passengers should never carry

children on their laps. No-one, how-

ever strong they are, can hold a child

in the event of a crash.

9) In case of an accident, replace the

seat with a new one.
