CHILD SAFETY
(continued)
CHILD SAFETY
- No modifications may be made to the component parts of the restraint system (belts, seats and their mountings)
originally fitted.
- Carefully follow the instructions for fitting provided by the manufacturer of the restraint system.
- Always avoid dressing the child in bulky garments and do not place any objects between the child and the restraint
system.
- The seat belt in the vehicle must be tight enough that the child seat is held in position securely. Check the tension
regularly.
- Never pass the belt under the arm or behind the back.
- The harness or belt should be taut and fitted to suit the child's size.
- Never allow your child to stand up or kneel on the seats while the vehicle is moving.
- Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, especially if asleep.
- Use the seat belts to hold the seat in position, even if it is not occupied. Otherwise, if an accident were to occur, it may
become dislodged and pose a risk to other vehicle occupants.
- Following a serious accident, have the seat belts and restraint systems in use at the time checked.
- You should never leave a child unattended in a vehicle, even in the restraint device.
- Activate the rear door locks (if your vehicle is equipped with these).
- Make sure that the child does not get out of the vehicle at the side of the traffic.
- Set your children a good example; always wear your seat belt.
