Remember to fasten the seat belts
or the child seat harnesses keeping
the slack in relation to the child’s
body to a minimum, even for short
journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle’s seat and
that the head restraint does not cause
any discomfort.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat

To prevent accidental opening of the
doors and rear windows, use the
"Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows
by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the
rear windows.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached se-
curely to prevent it from being thrown
around the vehicle in the event of sharp
braking.
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied by
other children, cannot be used or are
absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag
were to inflate.
