Infant Seat
(Rearward Facing)
THE SUITABILITY OF THE CHILD RESTRAINT TO GROUPS OF CHILDREN
TYPE A2
To be used only in a rearward-facing position until the infant’s shoulders reach the lower
shoulder height marker (approximately 12 months of age).
TYPE B
Then to be used in a forward-facing position until the child’s shoulders reach the upper
shoulder height marker (approximately 4 years of age).
Continue to use this child restraint until the child reaches this limit.
Do not use forward-facing until child’s shoulders are above the lower shoulder height marker.
Infants are at risk of serious injury if they face forward too early.
Children are at risk of serious injury if they move to booster seats too early.
Children who have outgrown this restraint are safest in a larger child restraint with an in-built
harness or a booster seat until their shoulders reach the upper shoulder height marker of the
restraint.
TO BE USED WITH A LAP-SASH/LAP-ONLY SEAT BELT OR ISOFIX LOW ANCHORAGES IN
THE BACK OF MOST CARS WITH FORWARD FACING SEATS.
The use of child restraints in the front seat may be restricted for children of specific ages by
local legislation.
Please check with your local Department of Transport.
IMPORTANT
!
• For a vehicle without a fixed parcel shelf an extension strap(s) may be needed.
If so ring (02) 4728 8090 for nearest supply location (refer to Page 49).
• Seatbelt extenders are not recommended to be used if the seatbelt is not long
enough to secure the child restraint. If seatbelts are too short then advice should be
sought from a child restraint fitter and their recommendation be considered before
using a seatbelt extender.
