Child restraint system

Follow the usage instructions for the child
restraint system.
Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, use of child
restraint systems is forbidden on certain
seats.
Selecting the right system
Your child should travel facing backwards
in the car for as long as possible. A child
has a very weak cervical spinal column and
in the event of an accident is less likely to
suffer injury in a rearward-facing, semi-
lying position than if seated upright.
9 Warning
Never carry child restraint systems on
your lap, risk of fatal injury.
