CG CAPTIVA 7 Owner's Manual page 145

WARNING – EXTREME HAZARD
• Do not use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by
an airbag in front of it.
The child could be seriously
injured if the airbag inflates, as
the child's head would be very
close to the inflating airbag.
• Never install a child restraint in
the front seat of a vehicle fitted
with Side Impact Airbags (SIAB).
Remember that it is safer for
children to be seated in the
rear seats.
• If a child can not see out of the
window, do not raise the child by
means of an ordinary cushion.
The cushion would not stay in
place in the event of a crash, and
the child would slip out of the
straps and become entangled.
Ensure the seat belt fits firmly
around the child restraint.
• Children should be restrained at
all times when travelling in
a vehicle.
WARNING
• Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they
to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
• Only child restraints that have clips to attach to the vehicle's anchorage fitting
(as shown in the following illustrations) are to be used. Earlier types of child
restraints may not attach securely to this type of anchor.
• Only Standards Australia approved child restraints and harnesses should be
used. You should only purchase a child restraint which carries the appropriate
Standards Australia sticker of approval.
• Where legally allowable, you may install a forward-facing child restraint in the
front passenger's seat (without side impact airbags), but always move this
seat as far back as it will go.
• Remember, it is safer for children to be seated in the rear seats.
