Child safety
Introduction
Before transporting babies and children in a
child seat placed in the front passenger seat,
first completely read the information regard-
ing the airbag system.
This information is extremely important for
driver and passenger safety, particularly that
of babies and children.
SEAT recommends the use of child seats from
the SEAT accessory programme. These child
seats have been designed and tested for use
in SEAT vehicles. You can purchase child
seats with different mountings from a SEAT
dealership.
WARNING
Make sure children are properly belted in and
correctly secured to avoid severe or fatal inju-
ries while the vehicle is in motion.
Never use a rear-facing child seat in the
front passenger seat if the front passenger
front airbag is enabled.
Children up to 12 years old should always
travel on the rear seat.
Children must always be protected with an
approved child restraint system suited to
their height and weight.
Children must assume the proper sitting
position and be properly belted in while trav-
elling.
Ensure the seat backrest is upright when a
child seat is being used on it.
Do not allow the child's head or other part
of his or her body to enter the deployment
area of the side airbags.
Make sure the belt webbing is correctly
positioned.
Never hold children or babies on your lap or
in your arms.
Only one child may occupy a child seat.
Please read and observe the child seat
manufacturer's handling instructions.
WARNING
An empty or loose child seat could fly uncon-
trollably around the vehicle interior and
cause injuries in the event of an accident or
sudden braking.
When not in use while the vehicle is in mo-
tion, always safely secure the child seat or
store it in the luggage compartment.
Note
Replace the child seat after an accident, as it
may have invisible damage.
