Safety system of your vehicle
Children always in the rear seats
Children under age 13 must always
ride in the rear seats and must
always be properly restrained to min-
imize the risk of injury in an accident,
sudden stop or sudden maneuver.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seats than in
the front seat. Children too large for
a Child Restraint System must use
the seat belts provided.
Most countries have laws for Child
Restraint System which require chil-
dren to travel in approved Child
Restraint System. The laws govern-
ing the age or height/weight restric-
tions at which seat belts can be used
instead of Child Restraint System dif-
fers among countries, so you should
be aware of the specific require-
ments in your country, and where
you are travelling.
Child Restraint System must be prop-
erly placed and installed in the rear
seat. You must use a commercially
available Child Restraint System that
meets the requirements of the Safety
Standards of your country.
Child Restraint Systems are general-
ly designed to be secured in a vehi-
cle seat by lap belt or the lap belt
portion of a lap/shoulder belt, or by a
top-tether and/or ISOFIX anchorage
in the rear seats of the vehicle.
We recommend:
Child Restraint System (CRS)
always in the rear
Infants and younger children must be
restrained in an appropriate rear-
ward-facing or forward-facing CRS
that has first been properly secured
to the rear seat of the vehicle. Read
and comply with the instructions for
installation and use provided by the
manufacturer of the Child Restraint
System.
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (CRS)
Always properly restrain chil-
dren in the rear seats of the vehi-
cle, unless the Air bag on the
front passenger seat is deacti-
vated.
Children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
A child riding in the front pas-
senger seat can be forcefully
struck by an inflating air bag
resulting in SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH.
