Child restraints
Suitable child restraints should always be used when children travel in the vehicle.
Child restraint systems
Infant seat
There are three main types of child restraint sys- tems: infant seats, convertible seats and boostercushions. They are classified according to thechild's age and size. The child restraint should be secured using a three-point seat belt, ISOFIX/LATCH anchors ortop tether anchors.
Convertible seat
WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the front passenger seat of any vehicle with a frontpassenger airbag – not even if the "Passen-ger airbag off" symbol near the rear-view mir-ror is illuminated (on vehicles equipped withOccupant Weight Sensor). If the severity of anaccident were to cause the airbag to inflate,this could lead to serious injury or death to achild seated in this position.

In addition,Volvo recommends that children shouldride rearward facing, properly restrained,as long as possible.
Automatic Locking Retractor/ Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR)
To make child seat installation easier, each seat belt (except for the driver's belt) is equipped witha locking mechanism to help keep the seat belttaut.

ing to the child seat manufacturer's instruc- tions.
2. Pull the seat belt out as far as possible.
