Control indicator for airbag
deactivation 3 83.Child restraints
Child 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 47.
Airbag deactivation 3 44.
Airbag label 3 39.
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.
