Child restraint device
Choose a suitable child restraint device based on the age and size
of your child.
Please choose a suitable child restraint device for your child. If your child has a too big size
to use the child restraint device, the child should sit in one rear seat and wear the seatbelt
normally.
Tip
●
It is strongly recommended to use the child restraint device. Some studies have
shown that it is safer to install the child restraint device in the rear seat than in the
front seat; do not install the child restraint device in the front seat.
●
The seatbelts in the car is mainly designed on base of the size of the adult and are
not suitable for children; please choose the appropriate child restraint device based
on the ages and sizes of the children.
When no child restraint device is used
Please normally secure the child restraint device in the seat; do not place it in the
passenger seat or in the luggage compartment freely.
Notes:
■
The seatbelt or the child restraint device must be used for restrain protection based on
the child age and size, so as to provide effective protection for the child in case of
accidents and emergency braking. Holding a child in arms is not a substitute for the
role of the child restraint device. In case of an accident, the child may be hit with the
windshield or be squeezed between you and the inside wall of the car.
■
Do not install a rear-facing child restraint device in the front passenger seat; otherwise,
the impact of rapid deployment of the front passenger airbag can cause serious injury
or even death in case of an accident.
■
In a car equipped with side airbags and side curtain airbags, even if a child is fixed in
the child restraint device, do not allow his/her head, body or any part to lean against
door, seat, front and rear pillars or the roof side beam (on deployment positions of the
side airbag or side curtain airbag). Otherwise, when the side airbag or the side curtain
airbag is triggered, the strong impact may cause serious injury or even death.
