Child Restraint Systems (Child Seats) - Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Owner's Manual

Child Restraint Systems
(Child Seats)
Porsche recommends that all infants and children be
restrained in child restraint systems at all times while
the vehicle is in motion in accordance with applicable
laws.
When possible, use only child restraint systems
recommended by Porsche. These systems have been
tested and adjusted to the interior of your Porsche
and the appropriate child weight groups.
Other systems have not been tested and could entail
an increased risk of injury.
The use of infant or child restraints is required by law
in all 50 US states and the Canadian provinces. The
child restraint system should be one that complies
with U.S. Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards and should be secured by a lap belt portion
of a lap-shoulder belt.
All child restraint systems are designed to be secured
in vehicle seats by lapbelts or the lapbelt portion of a
lap-shoulder belt.
e Always observe the separate installation instruc-
tions for your child seat.
Improper Use of Child
DANGER
Restraint
Children could be endangered in a crash if their child
restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle.
e Make sure that all child restraints are properly
secured.
A statement by the seat manufacturer of compliance
with this federal standard can be found on the
instruction label on the restraint and in the instruc-
tion manual provided with the restraint.
Child Restraint on the
DANGER
Passenger's Seat
The use of a child restraint system in the passenger's
seat can result in serious personal injury or death to
the child from an airbag deployment.
To reduce risk of injury from an inflating airbag in an
accident, Porsche strongly recommends:
f Please see chapter „PASS AIR BAG OFF indicator
light does not light up" on page 43.
e When using an infant or child restraint system, be
sure to follow all manufacturer's instructions on
installation and use.
e Infants and small children should neither be held
on the lap, nor should they share a seat belt with
another occupant while the vehicle is in motion.
e Children too big for child restraint systems must
use regular seat belts. A shoulder belt can be used
providing it does not cross the face or the neck of
the child.
e Choose a child restraint system according to the
weight of the child.
e Child restraint systems that are damaged or have
been heavily stressed in an accident must be
replaced immediately.
e Children could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly secured in the
vehicle.
e Do not adhere objects to child restraint systems
or cover them with other materials.
