CHILD SAFETY
(continued)
Category 2 (15 kg (33 lbs) to
25 kg (55 lbs)) and category 3
(22 kg (48 lbs) to 36 kg (79 lbs))
For correctly securing the pelvis of
a child under 10 years, with a
height under 1.36 m and a weight
of less than 36 kg, use a raised seat
with belt guides that ensure that
the three-point belt goes flat over
the child's thighs.
1.36
A booster seat with a height-
adjustable seatback and a belt guide
are recommended as this will allow
the belt to be worn as close to the
base of the neck as possible but
not on it.
Place the back of the child seat
firmly against the vehicle seatback.
Adjust the height of the head
restraint or remove it if necessary.
If a booster seat without a seatback
is used, the vehicle's head restraint
will have to be adjusted to suit
the child's stature; the upper edge
3
of the head restraint must be at
the same height as the top of the
child's head and should never be
lower than in line with the child's
eyes.
The standard classifies the child
restraints in five categories:
Category 0 : 0 to 10 kg (0 to 22 lbs)
Category 0+: 0 to 13 kg (0 to 29 lbs)
Category 1 : 9 to 18 kg (20 to 40 lbs)
Category 2 :15 to 25 kg (33 to 55 lbs)
Category 3 :22 to 36 kg (48 to 79 lbs)
