Britax Safe-n-Sound BS7300E-i20133 Series Instructions For Installation & Use page 51

If your restraint has been involved in a severe crash, you should destroy the restraint even if no damage
is obvious. Some insurance companies offer vehicle insurance which covers or partially covers the
replacement of your child restraint. Contact your insurance company for further details. Your insurance
company may require you to keep the child restraint for assessment,
after a severe crash. To assist you in making an accident insurance claim cut the following statement and
include it with your claim.
NOTICE TO INSURANCE COMPANY CHILD
RESTRAINT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT
All Britax Safe-n-Sound child restraints are manufactured to Australian/New Zealand
Standards AS/NZS1754-2013 which require us to advise users of child restraints to
"Destroy the entire restraint if it has been in use in a severe crash, even if no damage
is obvious". The joint Australian/New Zealand Standards committee CS/85, advise
that this statement applies whether a child was in the child restraint or not. A severe
crash, we consider as being one where the main body structure of the vehicle is
distorted.
There is no method of determining if the restraint has been damaged and we concur
with the Australian/New Zealand Standards in recommending destruction of the child
restraint.
This notice is to advise you of the requirements of the Australian/New Zealand
Standards and our obligation in complying with the standards.
Please assist the owner of this restraint in their claim.

CRASH EXCHANGE
We would never want you to experience an accident, but unfortunately accidents do happen.
If you experience an accident you may be eligible for a free replacement.
The Britax Safe-n-Sound Crash Exchange Program is a voluntary program designed to ensure that our
children are safe and that any seat that may have experienced a severe crash is taken out of the market.
There is no method of determining if the restraint has been damaged in a severe crash, so the restraint
should be destroyed as the crash may reduce the child restraints ability to perform.
Since its inception in 2006, the Crash Exchange program has helped 100's of families ensure that their
children have new restraints and that the restraints are not sold second hand placing others at risk.
Our Crash Exchange Terms and Application form are accessible on our website. Please visit
www.britax.com.au for further information.
