General information on child safety
Children of all ages and sizes must always sit
correctly secured in the car. Never allow a
child to sit on the knee of a passenger.
Volvo recommends that children travel in
rear-facing child seats until as late an age as
possible, at least until 3-4 years of age, and
then front-facing booster cushions/child seats
until up to 10 years of age.
The position of a child in the car and the
choice of equipment are dictated by the
child's weight and size; see Child seats
(p. 45).
NOTE
Regulations regarding the placement of
children in cars vary from country to coun-
try. Check what does apply.
Volvo has child safety equipment (child seats,
booster cushions & attachment devices)
which is designed for your particular car.
Using Volvo's child safety equipment pro-
vides you with optimum conditions for your
child to travel safely in the car. Furthermore,
the child safety equipment fits and is easy to
use.
NOTE
In the event of questions when fitting child
safety products, contact the manufacturer
for clearer instructions.
Child safety locks
The controls for operating the rear door
power windows and the rear door opening
handles can be blocked (p. 176) from open-
ing from the inside.
