rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This makes sure 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.
The following child restraints are
recommended for the following
weight classes:
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix for children up to 13 kg for group 0, group 0+ and Duo
Plus for children from 13 kg to 18 kg in group I.
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.
