Lancia Lybra Owner's Handbook Manual page 40

The results of research on the best
child restraint systems are contained
in the European Standard ECE-R44.
This Standard enforces the use of re-
straint systems classified in five
groups:
Group 0 0-10 kg in weight
Group 0+ 0-13 kg in weight
Group 0 9-18 kg in weight
Group 0 15-25 kg in weight
Group 0 22-36 kg in weight
As it may be noted, the groups over-
lap partly and in fact, in commerce it
is possible to find devices that cover
more than one weight group (fig. 39).
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control brand, on a solidly fixed label
which must absolutely never be re-
moved.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems,
children are considered as adults and
wear the seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Lancia offers seats for
each weight group, which are the rec-
ommended choice, as they have been
designed and experimented specifi-
cally for Lancia cars.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried
facing backwards on a cradle seat,
which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event
of sharp deceleration.
The cradle is restrained by the car
seat belts, as shown in fig. 40 and in
turn it must restrain the child with its
own belts.

to the instructions for fas-
tening which must be enclosed

system you are using .
GROUP 1
Starting from 9 kg to 18 kg in
weight, children may be carried fac-
ing forwards, with seats fitted with
front cushion (fig. 41), through which
the car seat belt restrains both child
and seat.
