Fiat 500x User Manual page 39

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 la-
bels 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.
