To sum up the safety precautions
to follow when transporting
children:
1) The recommended position for in-
stalling child's seat is on the rear seat, as
it is the most protected in the case of a
crash.
2) If the passenger's air bag is deactivat-
ed always check the amber warning light
on the cluster to make sure that it has ac-
tually been deactivated.
3) Attain to the instructions for fastening
the specific child restraint system which
you are using. These instructions must be
provided by the manufacturer. Keep the
child restraint system installation instruc-
tions with the vehicle documents and with
this Handbook. Never use a child restraint
system without installation instructions.
4) Always check the seat belt is well fas-
tened 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, however strong
they are, can hold a child in the event of
a crash.
9) In case of an accident, replace the
child's seat with a new one.
WARNING
With front passenger's air
bag active do not place cra-
dle child's seats facing backwards on
the front passenger seat since the air
bag activation could cause serious in-
juries, even mortal regardless of the
seriousness of the crash. You are ad-
vised to carry children always on the
rear seat, as this is the most protect-
ed position in the case of a crash.
