CHILD SAFETY(continued)
Category 2 (15 to 25 kg) and
category 3 (22 to 36 kg)
To correctly secure the pelvis of a
child of up to 12 years old, smaller
than 1.50 m and weighing less than
36 kg, it is preferable to use child
seats that can be combined with
three-point seat belts. This is a
booster seat (figure 3) with belt
guides to ensure that the belt will be
worn flat over the thighs of the
child.A booster seat with a
height-adjustable seatback and a
belt guide are recommended as this
will allow the belt to be worn as
close to the base of the neck as
possible but not on it.
Place the head rest in the top
position to allow you to press the
seat back of the child seat firmly
against the vehicle seatback.
If a booster seat without a seatback
is used, the vehicle's headrest will
have to be adjusted to suit the
child's stature; the upper edge of the
headrest must be at the same height
as the top of the child's head and
should never be lower than in line
with the child's eyes.
The standard classifies the
restraints in five categories:Category 0 : from 0 to 10 kg (0 to 22 lbs)
Category0+:from0to13kg(0to28lbs)
Category 1 : from 9 to 18 kg (20 to 40 lbs)
Category 2 : from 15 to 25 kg (33 to 55 lbs)
Category 3 : from 22 to 36 kg (48 to 80 lbs)
We recommend that you remove
the headrest and put it in the
luggage compartment, to facilitate
fitting certain types of child seat.
