Maserati GRANCABRIO Owner's Manual page 33

Below is a summary of the safety
regulations to be followed for
transporting children:
Children whose age, weight and
age are below the minimum limits
established by the laws in force in
the individual countries (European
Community: 3 years, 36 kg/79 lb
and 150 cm/59 in) may only travel
if secured using suitable restraint
systems.
We recommend that you always
install Isofi x type child seats on the
rear seat, as this is the safest position
in the event of a collision.
If the vehicle is equipped with active
passenger airbags, children may not
travel on the front seat in a rearward-
facing child seat.
If you deactivate the passenger-side
airbag, always check the relative
warning light on the instrument
panel to verify it has been actually
deactivated.
Always and strictly follow the
instructions that the manufacturer is
obliged by law to enclose with the
child seat.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
together with the documents and
this owner's manual. Do not use
a seat which is not provided with
instructions for use.
To ensure an optimal
restraining action of the
child seats, we recommend
that you choose the model that best
suits the shape of your seats and
preferably Isofi x-type child seats (see
page 28). It is advisable to try to fi t
the child seat in your vehicle before
purchasing it.
Always pull the seat belt to check that
it is locked in place.
All restraint systems must be used by a
single passenger only: never carry two
children in the same seat.
Always check that the seat belts are
not resting against the child's neck.
Do not allow the child to sit in
improper positions or to unbuckle
the seat belt /child seat safety harness
while travelling.
Do not carry children in your arms,
including babies. Nobody, however
strong, can hold on to a child in the
event of a collision.
After an accident, always replace the
child seat with a new one.
