If your restraint has been involved in a severe crash, you should destroy the restraint even if no damage is obvious. Some
insurance companies offer vehicle insurance which covers or partially covers the replacement of your child restraint. Contact
your insurance company for further details. Your insurance company may require you to keep the child restraint for assessment,
but do not use the child restraint after a severe crash.
To assist you in making an accident insurance claim cut the following
statement and include it with your claim.
IN CASE OF ACCIDENT
All Safe-n-Sound child restraints are manufactured to Australian/New
Zealand Standards AS/NZS1754-2004 which require us to advise users
of child restraints to "Destroy the entire restraint if it has been in use
in a severe crash, even if no damage is obvious". The joint Australian/
New Zealand Standards committee CS/85, advise that this statement
applies whether a child was in the child restraint or not. A severe crash,
we consider as being one where the main body structure of the vehicle is
distorted.
There is no method of determining if the restraint has been damaged and
we concur with the Australian/New Zealand Standards in recommending
destruction of the child restraint.
This notice is to advise you of the requirements of the Australian/New
Zealand Standards and our obligation in complying with the standards.
Please assist the owner of this restraint in their claim.
