INSTALLATION OF CAR ANCHOR FITTING
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.
IN CASE OF ACCIDENT
All Safe-n-Sound child restraints are manufactured to Australian/New Zealand
Standards AS/NZS1754-2010 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.
