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.

child restraints are manufactured to Australian/New
Zealand Standards AS/NZS1754-2013 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.
