This makes sure that thechild's backbone, which is still veryweak, is under less strain in the eventof an accident.Suitable are restraint systems thatcomply with valid UN ECEregulations. Check local laws andregulations for mandatory use of childrestraint systems.The following child restraints arerecommended for the followingweight classes:

Maxi Cosi Cabriofix for children up to13 kg for group 0, group 0+ and DuoPlus for children from 13 kg to 18 kgin group I.Ensure that the child restraint systemto be installed is compatible with thevehicle type.Ensure that the mounting location ofthe child restraint system within thevehicle is correct, see followingtables.Allow children to enter and exit thevehicle only on the side facing awayfrom the traffic.When the child restraint system is notin use, secure the seat with a seat beltor remove it from the vehicle.NoteDo not affix anything on the childrestraint systems and do not coverthem with any other materials.A child restraint system which hasbeen subjected to stress in anaccident must be replaced.
