Before Driving
Child Safety
Aston Martin strongly recommends:
• That all children are seated in the rear passenger seats (2+2
Seating Only).
• A child, regardless of age, should always be restrained when
travelling in a vehicle.
Warning: Accident statistics show that children are generally
safer when correctly restrained in the rear seat than in the front
seat. A suitable child restraint, correctly installed and used,
provides the highest degree of protection for infants and small
children in most accident situations.
Warning: Do not allow children to travel in a vehicle without
restraint. An appropriate child seat or harness should always be
used.
Warning: Each seat belt assembly must be used by only one
passenger. It is dangerous to put a seat belt around a child being
carried on the passengers lap.
Warning: Make sure that an installed child seat does not rest
against the door, that the child sits correctly in the seat and does
not lean close to, or against, the door or window.
Your vehicle has the following devices for the installation of child
restraints:
• Front Passenger Sensing system
• Passenger seats Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) seat belts
• Tether anchor points

Child Seats and Front Passenger Airbag
Warning: Do not place a child restraint on a seat with an
active airbag.
If a child seat is to be used in the front passenger seat, the front
passenger airbag must be set to OFF. Make sure that the child seat
manufacturer’s installation instructions are followed correctly.
In the event of a serious frontal or side collision the vehicle airbag
system is designed to deploy, to provide additional protection for the
front seat occupants.
If a forward facing child seat is to be used in the front passenger seat,
follow the child seat manufacturer’s instructions to secure the child
seat and move the passenger seat to its rearmost and lowest position.
