Volvo 2008 S40 Owner's Manual page 32

NOTE
Refer to pages 41-42 for information on securing a child restraint using ISOFIX lower anchors and/or top tether
anchorages.
Convertible seats can be used in either a forward or rearward-facing position, depending on the age and size of the
child.
WARNING
Always use a convertible seat that is suitable for the child's age and size. See the convertible seat manufacturer's
recommendations.
WARNING
A small child's head represents a considerable part of its total weight and its neck is still very weak. Volvo
recommends that children up to age 4 travel, properly restrained, facing rearward. In addition, Volvo recommends
that children should ride rearward facing, properly restrained, as long as possible.
