CHILD PROTECTION SYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY
79) 80) 81) 82)
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated and
wearing adequate restraint systems,
including newborn and other children!
This prescription is compulsory in all EC
countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 4.9 ft
(1.50 metres) and up to 12 years must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that the
rear seats offer greater safety for
children.
Compared with an adult, a child's head is
larger and heavier in proportion to their
body and the child's muscular and bone
structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are necessary,
to reduce as much as possible the risk of
injuries in the event of an accident,
braking or sudden manoeuvre.
Children must be seated safely and
comfortably. Depending on the
characteristics of the child restraint
systems used, you are advised to keep
children in rearward facing child restraint
systems for as long as possible (at least
until 3-4 years old), since this is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
The choice of the most suitable child
restraint system depends on the weight
and size of the child. There are various
types of child restraint systems, which
can be secured to the car by means of the
seat belts or with the ISOFIX/i-Size
anchorages.
It is recommended to always choose the
restraint system most suitable for the
child; for this reason always refer to the
Owner Handbook provided with the child
restraint system, to be sure that it is of
the right type for the children it is
intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight range
Group 0
up to 22 lb (10 kg) in
weight
Group 0+
up to 28.7 lb (13 kg)
in weight
Group 1
20 - 40 lb (9 - 18 kg)
in weight
Group 2
33 - 55 lb (15 - 25 kg)
in weight
Group 3
48.5 - 79.4 lb (22 -
36 kg) in weight
The ECE-R44 standard was recently
paired with the ECE R-129 regulation,
which defines the characteristics of the
new i-Size child restraint systems (see
the "Suitability of passenger seats for
i-Size child restraint system use"
paragraph for more information).
All restraint devices must bear the
type-approval data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.
Lineaccessori includes child restraint
systems for each weight group. These
devices are recommended having been
specifically tested for Alfa Romeo cars.
INSTALLING A CHILD CARSEAT WITH
SEATBELTS
The Universal child restraint systems
installed with the seat belts only are
type-approved on the basis of the ECE
R44 standard and are divided into
various weight groups.

IMPORTANT The figures are only an
example for installation. Fit the child
restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.
Group 0 and 0+
Babies up to 28.7 lb (13 kg) must be
carried with a rear facing child restraint
system of a type as shown in
fig. 129 which, supporting the head, does
not induce stress on the neck in the event
of sudden decelerations.
