Child safety
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Note: The rear seats are the safest
place for children.
WARNINGS
NEVER install any child restraint
(eg. baby capsule, child seat or
booster seat) in the front seat where a
passenger air bag is fitted, as a serious
injury or death may result from the force
of the inflating front passenger air bag.
The rear seat is the safest place for
children.
EXTREME HAZARD! Do not
use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it.

AIRBAG
On hot days the temperature
inside the vehicle can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people or animals to
these high temperatures for even a short
time can cause death or serious heat
related injuries, including brain damage.
Small children are particularly at risk.
Safety belts and seats can
become hot in a vehicle that has
been closed up in sunny weather, they
could burn a small child. Check seat
covers and buckles before you place a
child anywhere near them.
Selecting a child restraint
system
To provide protection, a child restraint
system should meet three requirements.
1. The child restraint system
complies with Australian
Standard AS1754.
Infants and small children must be
properly restrained at all times in an
approved child restraint which conforms
to Australian Standard AS1754-1991 or
later. Look for the Australian Standards
Approval Mark on the child restraint.
2. The child restraint must be
suitable for the size and weight
of the child and must be
properly fitted and adjusted.
Rearward facing restraints are suitable
for babies, and forward facing child
restraints are suitable for small children.
Use the child restraint exactly as shown
in the instructions provided with the child
restraint. If you have any doubts, contact
the child restraint manufacturer or
consult an approved Restraint Fitting
Station.
