Child seats (accessories)
Introduction
Please read the information regarding the airbag system fully before trans-
porting babies and children in a child seat or other child restraint system
installed on the front passenger seat.
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 qual-
ified workshop.
Using child restraint systems with a base or foot
Some child retention systems are secured to the seat using a base or foot. For
certain equipment the use of an additional accessory will be necessary (for
example, the accessory for the floor compartment) to fit the child retention
system correctly and securely.
Additional information and warnings:
x Airbag system page 33
x Integrated child seats page 52
WARNING
Make sure children are properly belted in and correctly secured to avoid
severe or fatal injuries while the vehicle is in motion.
x Never use a rear-facing child seat in the front passenger seat if the front
passenger airbag is enabled.
x You should always transport all children up to 12 years of age on the
rear seat.
x Children must always be protected with an approved child restraint
system suited to their height and weight.
x Children must assume the proper sitting position and be properly
belted in while travelling.
x Ensure the backrest of a seat is upright when a child seat is being used
on it.
x Do not allow the child's head or other part of his or her body to fall into
the deployment area of the side airbags.
x Make sure the belt webbing is correctly positioned.
x Never hold children or babies on your lap or in your arms.
x Only one child may occupy a child seat.
x If you are using a child seat with a base or foot, always install this base
or foot correctly and safely.
x If the vehicle has a storage compartment in the foot well in front of the
last row of seats, this compartment cannot be used as designed; on the
contrary: It must be filled using the specially designed accessory so that
the base or foot is correctly supported by the closed compartment and the
child seat is secured properly. If this compartment is not suitably secured
when using a child seat with a base or foot then the compartment cover
could rupture in an accident and the child will be ejected and suffer serious
injury.
x Please read and observe the child seat manufacturer's handling
instructions.
