Child Restraints - Alfa Romeo Stelvio 2019 User Manual

Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or brake
pedal; and,
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
Note:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;
no data are recorded by the EDR under
normal driving conditions and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash
location) are recorded. However, other
parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition
to the vehicle manufacturer, other
parties, such as law enforcement, that
have the special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to the
vehicle or the EDR.

Child Restraints

Everyone in your vehicle needs to be
buckled up at all times, including babies
and children. Every state in the United
States, and every Canadian province,
requires that small children ride in proper
restraint systems. This is the law, and you
can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
Children 12 years or younger should ride
properly buckled up in a rear seat, if
available. According to crash statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seats rather than in
the front.
Warning!
In a collision, an unrestrained child can
become a projectile inside the vehicle. The
force required to hold even an infant on your
lap could become so great that you could
not hold the child, no matter how strong you
are. The child and others could be badly
injured or killed. Any child riding in your
vehicle should be in a proper restraint for
the child's size.
There are different sizes and types of
restraints for children from newborn size
to the child almost large enough for an
adult safety belt. Always check the child
seat Owner's Manual to make sure you
have the correct seat for your child.
Carefully read and follow all the
instructions and warnings in the child
restraint Owner's Manual and on all the
labels attached to the child restraint.
Before buying any restraint system,
make sure that it has a label certifying
that it meets all applicable Safety
Standards. You should also make sure
that you can install it in the vehicle where
you will use it.
