When using a child restraint system, please follow the installation and use instructions below and the system manufacturer's recommendations.
Always follow local or national laws and regulations. In some countries, the installation of child seats in certain places is prohibited.
Warning: NEVER use a child safety seat in a seat with an ACTIVATED AIR BAG in front of it! Risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH to the child!
Warning: WARNING - EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! Never install a rear-facing child seat on a seat equipped with an airbag. If the airbag inflates, it could cause serious injury to the child because the child's head would be very close to the inflating airbag.
Warning: When using a child safety seat in the front passenger seat, the airbag systems for the front passenger seat must be turned off; if this is not done, the airbags can pose a mortal danger to the child when deployed. This is especially true if a rear-facing child safety seat is used in the front passenger seat.
Choosing the right system
The rear seats are the most convenient location for child seat anchorage systems.
If possible, the child should be transported backwards. This way, the child's fragile spine is subject to less stress in the event of an accident.
Children under 12 years of age and shorter than 150 cm are only allowed to sit in a child safety seat in the vehicle. Child seats that comply with ECE 44-03 or ECE 44-04 are permitted. It is almost impossible to ensure proper seat belt positioning for children shorter than 150 cm, so we strongly recommend using a suitable child seat even when this is not required due to the child's age.
It is not allowed to hold a child in your arms while the car is moving. At the moment of collision, the inertial force acting on him will increase the child's weight many times over, so it will be impossible to hold him.
When transporting children, you must use safety systems that are appropriate for their body weight.
Make sure the child restraint system you are installing is compatible with the vehicle's anchorage system.
Make sure you have chosen the correct location for installing the child safety system.
Children must be loaded into a car only from the sidewalk side.
When the child seat is not in use, secure it with the seat belt or remove it from the vehicle.
Note: Child safety systems must not be covered or pasted over with any other materials.
After an accident, a child safety system that has been activated must be replaced.
Make sure infants and children in the rear seats are in child seats.
Until children can use seat belts, select and use age-appropriate child seats. Read the instructions for the child seat you are using.
