Transporting children safely186

• Never allow your child to be transported in a vehicle without the use of a

suitable restraint system.

• Children should also never stand up in a vehicle or kneel on the seats

when the vehicle is moving. In the event of an accident the child will be

thrown through the vehicle and may as a result suffer fatal injuries, and also

injure other occupants.

• Children are exposed to an increased risk of injury in the event of an acci-

dent if they lean forward or adopt an incorrect seated position when the

vehicle is moving. This particularly applies to children who are transported

on the front passenger seat if the airbag system deploys in the event of an

accident. This can result in severe or even fatal injuries.

• It is important that the belt webbing is properly routed if the seat belts

are to offer their maximum protection ⇒ page 170, “How are seat belts

correctly fastened?”. Pay particular attention to the information provided by

the manufacturer of the child safety seat regarding correct routing of the

belt. Seat belts which are not correctly adjusted can themselves cause inju-

ries even in minor accidents.

• Safety belts must be checked to ensure that they are running properly.

One should also ensure that the belt is not damaged by sharp-edged fittings.

• It is essential to always switch off ⇒ page 183 the front passenger airbag

when attaching a child safety seat on the front passenger seat where the

child is seated with its back facing in direction of travel (in some countries

also when the child is facing the direction of travel). If this is not done, there

is a risk of the child suffering severe or even fatal injuries if the front

passenger airbag is deployed. In certain countries national legal provisions

also require that the side and head airbags be deactivated. When trans-

porting a child on the front passenger seat, please comply with the appro-

priate national regulations regarding the use of child safety seats.

Use of child safety seats on the front passenger seat

Child safety seats should always be attached to the rear seats.

We recommend, for safety reasons, that you always mount a child restraint systems

on the rear seats whenever possible. If you still decide, however, to use a child

safety seat on the front passenger seat then you must pay attention to the following

warnings in connection with the use of the airbag system on the front passenger

seat.

WARNING

• Warning - particular hazard! Never use a child safety seat on the front

passenger seat in which the child is seated with its back facing the direction

of travel. This child safety seat is positioned in the deployment area of the

front passenger airbag. The airbag may cause the child severe, or even fatal

injuries, in the event of it being deployed.

• This is also clearly stated on the sticker which is located on the centre

column of the body on the front passenger side ⇒ fig. 180. The sticker is

visible upon opening the front passenger door. For some countries, the

sticker is also affixed to the sun visor of the front passenger.

• It is essential to always switch off ⇒ page 182, “Deactivating an airbag”

the front passenger airbag when attaching a child safety seat on the front

passenger seat where the child is seated with its back facing in direction of

travel (in some countries also when the child is facing the direction of travel).

WARNING (continued)
