Seats, restraints47Child restraintsChild restraint systems
We recommend the following
Vauxhall child restraint system which are tailored specifically to the vehicle:
■ Group 0, Group 0+
VAUXHALL Baby cradle, with or
without ISOFIX base, for children
up to 13 kg.
■ Group I
FAIR G 0/1 S ISOFIX, for children
from 9 kg to 13 kg in this group.
VAUXHALL Duo, for children from
13 kg to 18 kg in this group.
■ Group II, Group III
VAUXHALL Kid, VAUXHALL
Kidfix, TAKATA MAXI 2/3 for
children from 15 kg up to 36 kg.
When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions
and also those supplied with the child
restraint system.Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.9 Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to
certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the table 3 48.
Airbag deactivation 3 45.
Airbag label 3 40.
Selecting the right system The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This ensures that the child's backbone, which is still very weak, is
under less strain in the event of an
accident.
Suitable are restraint systems that
comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child restraint systems.
Ensure that the child restraint system
to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type.
Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following
tables.
Allow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is not in use, secure the seat with a seat beltor remove it from the vehicle.
Notice
Do not affix anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.
