Safety systems
Child restraint system
3
The Vauxhall child restraint system is 
designed specifically for your Vauxhall and 
thus provides optimum safety for your child 
in the event of impact. If a different child 
safety seat is used, follow the 
manufacturers’ instructions for fitting and 
use. 
The country in which you are driving could 
require the use of child restraint systems 
and specific seats. Follow all local and 
national regulations.
Selecting the right system 
Your child should be transported facing 
rearward in the vehicle as long as possible. 
Change the system when the height of 
the child is such that the head extends over 
the top of the system and is no longer 
supported at eye level. The child’s neck 
area is still very weak. In the event of an 
accident, they are subjected to less stress in 
the semi-prone rearward position than 
when upright. 
Note 
z Children under 12 years of age or 150 cm 
must only travel in an appropriate child 
restraint system on the rear seats 3.
z When transporting children, use the child 
restraint systems suitable for the child’s 
weight. 
z Be sure that child restraint systems are 
properly installed - see the instructions 
accompanying the child restraint 
system. 
z The covers of the Vauxhall child restraint 
system can be wiped clean. 
z Do not stick anything on the child 
restraint systems and do not cover them 
with any other materials. 
z Only allow children to enter and exit at 
the side facing away from the traffic. 
z A child restraint system which has been 
subjected to stress in an accident must 
be replaced.
