Child Seats - Seat Toledo 2019 Owner's Manual

the vehicle must be taken to a technical
service.
All vehicle occupants, especially chil-
●
dren, must assume the proper sitting posi-
tion and be properly belted in while travel-
ling.
Never hold children or babies on your lap,
●
this can result in potentially fatal injuries to
the child!
Never allow a child to be transported in a
●
vehicle without being properly secured, or
to stand up or kneel on a seat while travel-
ling. In an accident, the child could be flung
through the vehicle, causing possibly fatal
injuries to themselves and to the other vehi-
cle occupants.
If children assume an improper sitting po-
●
sition when the vehicle is moving, they ex-
pose themselves to greater risk of injury in
the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre
or in an accident. This is particularly impor-
tant if the child is travelling on the front
passenger seat and the airbag system is
triggered in an accident; as this could
cause serious injury or even death.
A suitable child seat can protect your
●
child!
Never leave a child alone in the child seat
●
or inside the vehicle because depending on
the season, very high temperatures may be
reached inside a parked vehicle, which
could be fatal.

Safety
Children who are less than 1.5 metres tall
●

child seat, as this could cause injuries to
the abdominal and neck areas during a
sudden braking manoeuvre or in an acci-
dent.
Only one child may occupy a child seat
