CONTROLS Transporting children safely

Transporting children safely

Vehicle equipment

In this chapter, all production, country, and

optional equipment that is offered in the model

range is described. Equipment is also described

that is not available because of, for example,

selected options or country version. This also

applies to safety related functions and systems.

The right place for

children

Do not leave children unattended in the

vehicle; otherwise, they could endanger

themselves and/or other persons by opening the

doors, for example.<

Children should always sit in the rear

Accident research has shown that the safest

place for children is on the rear seat.

Only transport children under the age of

13 or smaller than 5 ft/150 cm in the rear

in a child restraint system suitable for their age,

weight and size. Otherwise, there is an

increased risk of injury in the event of an acci-

dent.<

Children 13 years of age or older must be buck-

led in with a safety belt as soon as there no

longer is any child restraint system that is appro-

priate for their age, size and weight.

Only install child seats in the rear when the

rear seat backrest is folded all the way

back and engaged. Otherwise, there is an

increased risk of injury in the event of an acci-

dent.<

Exception for front passenger seat

Front passenger airbags

Should it be necessary to use a child

restraint system on the front passenger

seat, the front and side airbags must be deacti-

vated. Otherwise, there is an increased risk of

injury to the child if the airbags deploy, even if

the child is seated in a child restraint system.<

For more information on automatic deactivation

of the front passenger airbags, refer to page 78.

Child restraint systems,

installation

Observe the child restraint system manu-

facturer's instructions when selecting,

installing and using child restraint systems. Oth-

erwise, the protective effect may be dimin-

ished.<

On the front passenger seat

After installing a child restraint system on

the front passenger seat, make sure that

the front and side airbags for the front passen-

ger are deactivated; otherwise, there is an

increased risk of injury if the airbags deploy.<

Seat position

Before installing a child restraint system, move

the front passenger seat as far back and up as

possible to obtain the best possible position for

the belt. Do not change the seat position after

this.
