Child restraint systems

When a child restraint system is
being used, pay attention to the
following usage and installation
instructions and also those supplied
with the child restraint system.
The country in which you are driving
could require the use of child restraint
systems at specific seats. Follow all
local and national regulations.
Selecting the right system
Your child should be transported
facing rearwards in the vehicle for as
long as possible. It is appropriate to
change the system when the child’s
head can no longer be properly
supported at eye height. The child’s
cervical vertebrae are still very weak
and in an accident they suffer less
stress in the semi-prone rearward
position than when sitting upright.
„ Children under 12 years or under
150 cm tall should only travel in an
appropriate child safety seat.
„ Never carry a child whilst travelling
in the vehicle. The child will
become too heavy to hold in the
event of a collision.
„ When transporting children, use a
child restraint system that is
suitable for the child's weight, age
and height.
„ Ensure that the child restraint
system to be installed is compatible
with the vehicle type.
„ Ensure that the mounting location
of the child restraint system within
the vehicle is correct.
„ Only allow children to enter and exit
the vehicle at the side facing away
from the traffic.
„ When the child restraint system is
not in use, secure the seat with a
seat belt or remove it from the
vehicle.
„ A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.
„ Vauxhall produce a range of child
restraint systems. We recommend
you consult a Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer.

Warning
When using a child restraint
system on the front passenger’s
seat, the airbag systems for the
front passenger’s seat must be
deactivated; if not, the triggering
of the airbags poses a risk of fatal
injury to the child.
This is especially the case if rear-
facing child restraint systems are
used on the front passenger’s
seat.
