The label on the rear seat
Fig. 185► tells you whether the rear seat of the vehicle has been tested as a Group 3 child seat and approved under the ECE-R 44 standard. Children should be buckled in without a child seat with the normal three-point seat belt.
WARNING
- The shoulder section of the belt must be fitted across the centre of the collar bone close to the upper body. It must never run against or across the neck. The lap belt must be worn tightly across the hips, and not over the stomach or abdomen. Pull the belt tight if necessary to take up any slack.
- The distance between the occupant s head and the rear window must be at least 2.5 cm when sitting upright in the rear seat - otherwise serious head injuries could be caused when closing the boot lid or in the event of an accident. Always pay close attention to passengers in the rear seat when closing the boot lid.
