SEAT BELTS FOR OLDER
CHILDREN
Children over 1.50 m in height can
wear seat belts instead of using child
restraints.
Use this simple 5-step test to decide
whether the seat belt properly fits the
child or if they should still use a Group
2 or Group 3 child restraint to im-
prove the fit of the seat belt:
1. Can the child sit all the way back
against the back of the vehicle seat?
2. Do the child's knees bend comfort-
ably over the front of the vehicle seat –
while they are still sitting all the way
back?
3. Does the shoulder belt cross the
child's shoulder between their neck
and arm?
4. Is the lap part of the belt as low as
possible, touching the child's thighs
and not their stomach?
5. Can the child stay seated like this
for the whole trip?

If the answer to any of these questions
was "no," then the child still needs to
use a Group 2 or 3 child restraint in
this vehicle. If the child is using the
lap/shoulder belt, check belt fit peri-
odically and make sure the seat belt
buckle is latched. A child's squirming
or slouching can move the belt out of
position. If the shoulder belt contacts
the face or neck, move the child closer
to the center of the vehicle, or use a
booster seat to position the seat belt
on the child correctly.
WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the
shoulder belt under an arm or be-
hind their back. In a crash, the
shoulder belt will not protect a
child properly, which may result in
serious injury or death. A child
must always wear both the lap and
shoulder portions of the seat belt
correctly.
ISOFIX RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with the
child restraint anchorage system
called ISOFIX. This system allows
ISOFIX - equipped child seats to be
installed without using the vehicle's
seat belts. The ISOFIX system has two
lower anchorages located at the back
of the seat cushion where it meets the
seatback and a top tether anchorage
located behind the seating position.
An example of a Universal ISOFIX
child restraint system for weight
group 1 is shown in fig. B. ISOFIX
child restraints are also available in
the other weight groups.
