Child Safety - Ikco DONG FENG S30 2016 Owner's Manual

When a child takes the vehicle
To ensure safety, please understand and
consider the following requirements:
- The child must take the safety seat.
- The child lighter than 9kg shall be
seated with "back towards the driving
direction". It is recommended to apply
this seating manner for a long period
(until the child is 2-3 years old).
Safest seating position for children:
Rear seat. Even if a rearward child seat
is equipped, you shall make the child
take a rear seat.
- Do not make the child sit on the knees
of the front passenger in any cases
(since the child may be thrown to the
instrument panel or windshield in case
of vehicle collision).
- Do not make the child stay at the position
between two front seats to avoid being
thrown out during emergency braking
or vehicle collision.
- Both rear doors are equipped with the
"child safety latch". If the function is
activated, only after unlocking the
central locking can the rear door be
opened outside.
- Do not leave the child alone in the
vehicle exposed to the sun.
- Ensure that there is no danger and
watch out the traffic before opening
the door.
- Take off the key and apply the parking
brake before leaving the vehicle.
- Do not leave the key on the vehicle,
since the child may start the vehicle
with the key by accident, and thus
causing dangers. The key may also be
locked in the vehicle by accidentally
pressing down the remote controller
or the central locking button, making
you unable to open the door outside.
The body structure of a child is
different from that of an adult: the
head-body specific gravity of child is
different from that of the adult before the
child becomes 7-8 years old. During the
sudden deceleration or violent vehicle
collision, serious cervical trauma may be
caused for children since their muscle
on the neck is relatively weak and the
bones are fragile.
Only the child up to 10 years old or
1.35m high can be seated in the vehicle

CHILD SAFETY

without child restraints. But the safety
belt is still a must.
Child should be placed on the rear
seat:
The vehicle collision statistics prove that
it is much safer to place the child on the
rear seat instead of front seat regardless
of the age and height.
During vehicle collision or emergency
braking, the child on the rear seat is
unlikely to be injured by the hard articles
inside and the inflated airbag.
Warning:
It is prohibited to place child seat on the
front seat, or else, serious casualties
may be caused.
