Carrying children  
Special features of LPG  
versions  
Children, and adults, must be correctly  
seated and strapped in for all journeys.  
The children being carried in your vehi-  
cle are your responsibility.  
The vehicle’s LPG installa-  
tion may lead to changes to  
the vehicle’s features compared to  
the petrol version.  
A child is not a miniature adult. Children  
are at risk of specific injuries as their  
muscles and bones have not yet fin-  
ished growing. The seat belt alone  
would not provide suitable protection.  
Use an approved child seat and ensure  
you use it correctly.  
This may relate to the number of  
seats and the installation of child  
seats.  
Please contact an authorised dealer.

child without a restraint is the equi-  
valent of allowing him or her to play  
on a fourthfloor balcony without rail-  
ings.  
Never travel with a child held in your  
arms. In the event of an accident,  
you will not be able to keep hold of  
the child, even if you yourself are  
wearing a seat belt.  
If your vehicle has been involved in  
a road accident, replace the child  
seat and have the seat belts and  
ISOFIX fittings checked.  
Never let your child put their head or  
arms out of the window.  
Check that the child is in the correct  
position for the entire journey, espe-  
cially if asleep.  
To prevent the doors being  
opened, use the childproof  
locks (refer to the informa-  
tion on “Locking/unlocking  
the doors” in Section 1).

CHILD SAFETY: general information (2/3)  
Using a child seat  
Set a good example by always fas-  
tening your seat belt and teaching  
your child:  
– to strap themselves in correctly;  
– to always get in and out of the car  
at the kerb, away from busy traf-  
fic.  
The level of protection offered by the  
child seat depends on its ability to re-  
strain your child and on its installation.  
Incorrect installation compromises the  
protection it offers the child in the event  
of harsh braking or an impact.  
Before purchasing a child seat, check  
that it complies with the regulations for  
the country you are in and that it can  
be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an ap-  
proved dealer to find out which seats  
are recommended for your vehicle.  
Do not use a second-hand child  
seat or one without an instruction  
manual.  
Check that there are no objects in  
the vicinity of the child seat which  
could impede its operation.  
Before fitting a child seat, read the  
manual and respect its instructions. If  
you experience any difficulties during  
installation, contact the manufacturer  
of the equipment. Keep the instructions  
with the seat.  
Never leave a child unat-  
tended in the vehicle.  
Check that your child is  
always strapped in and that  
the belt or safety harness used is  
correctly set and adjusted. Avoid  
wearing bulky clothing which could  
cause the belts to slacken.  
Never let your child put their head or  
arms out of the window.  
Check that the child is in the correct  
position for the entire journey, espe-  
cially if asleep.

Rear-facing child seats  
Forward-facing child seats  
Booster cushions  
A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier  
than that of an adult and its neck is very  
fragile. Transport the child in this po-  
sition for as long as possible (until the  
age of 2 at the very least). It supports  
the head and neck. Choose a bucket  
type seat for better side protection and  
replace it as soon as the child’s head  
extends past the seat shell.  
The child’s head and abdomen need to  
be protected as a priority. A forward-fac-  
ing child seat which is firmly attached to  
the vehicle will reduce the risk of impact  
to the head. Ensure your child travels in  
a forward-facing seat with a harness for  
as long as their size permits. Choose  
a wrap-around seat for better side pro-  
tection.  
From 15 kg or 4 years, the child can  
travel using a booster seat, which will  
enable the seat belt to be adapted  
to suit his/her size and shape. The  
booster seat cushion must be fitted with  
guides to position the seat belt on the  
child’s thighs rather than the stomach.  
It is recommended that you use a seat-  
back fitted with a belt strap guide which  
can be adjusted in terms of height to  
position the seat belt in the centre of  
the shoulder. It should never rest on the  
neck or over the arm. Choose a bucket  
type seat for better side protection.
