SAFETY
* Option/accessory. 58
Child safety
Children must always sit secure while travelling
in the car.
Volvo has child safety equipment (child seats and
attachment devices) which is designed for fitting
in this particular car. Using Volvo's child safety
equipment, you obtain the optimum conditions for
a child to travel safely in the car. In addition, the
child safety equipment fits in well and is simple to
use.
The equipment that should be used is selected
taking account of the weight and size of the child.
Volvo recommends that children travel in a rear-
facing child seat until as late an age as possible,
at least until 3-4 years of age, and then in a
front-facing child seat until the child is 140 cm
(4 feet 7 inches) tall.
NOTE
Legal provisions about the type of child seat
that must be used for children of different
ages and heights vary from country to coun-
try. Check what does apply.
NOTE
When using child safety equipment, it is
important to read the installation instructions
included.
In the event of questions when fitting child
safety equipment, contact the manufacturer
for clearer instructions.
Children of all ages and sizes must always sit
correctly secured in the car. Never allow a child to
sit on the knee of a passenger.
