SAFETY
Child seat mounting
It is important to remember a number of
things when a child restraint system is moun-
ted and used, which depend on where the
child restraint system is positioned.
WARNING
Booster cushions/child seats with steel
braces or some other design that could
rest on the seatbelt buckle's opening but-
ton must not be used, as they could cause
the seatbelt buckle to open accidentally.
Do not secure the straps for the child seat
into the seat's horizontal adjustment bar or
in springs, rails or beams under the seat.
Sharp edges may damage the straps.
Do not allow the upper section of the child
seat to rest against the windscreen.
NOTE
When using child safety equipment, it is
important to read the installation instruc-
tions included.
In the event of questions when fitting child
safety equipment, contact the manufac-
turer for clearer instructions.

fittings. Volvo recommends using the kick
guard accessory to protect the car's fit-
tings.
