Child Safety - Aston Martin DB9 2006 Manual

Seat Belt Unfastening
Depress the button on the buckle.
While holding the seat belt tongue
allow the belt to slowly retract to it's
stored position.
Seat Belt Fastening (Child)
Ensure there is no slack in the webbing
and the restraint fits the child snugly
across the rib cage and hips. These are the parts of the body
most able to take the force of impact.
The lap strap should pass across the top of the child's thighs,
bearing on the pelvis, not on the abdominal area.
3.8
Pre-tensioner and Load Limiting Systems
For optimum protection, the driver and front passenger seat
belts are equipped with pre-tensioner and load limiting
systems.
In most moderate frontal or near frontal accidents, the front
airbag and pre-tensioner systems will deploy simultaneously.
In some moderate frontal or near frontal accidents, only the
pre-tensioner system will deploy.
The pre-tensioners take up slack in the front seat belts as the
airbags are expanding. The load limiting system releases belt
webbing in a controlled manner to reduce belt force on the
occupant's chest.

Child Safety

A child, regardless of age, should always be restrained when
travelling in a vehicle.
Warning
Do not allow children to travel in a vehicle without
restraint. An appropriate child seat or harness should
always be used.
Warning
Each seat belt assembly must be used by only one
occupant. It is dangerous to put a seat belt around a
child being carried on the occupants lap.
