Attention: The anatomical features of the structure of the child's body determine an increased risk of injury compared to adults when airbags are triggered!
In order to ensure the safety of transporting young and middle-aged children, special child seats and restraints should be used that are interfaced with the car's standard seat belts. Detailed instructions for the placement and installation of child seats should be attached to them - if necessary, contact the official representative offices of Opel for advice. When installing the child seat, strictly follow the instructions given in the instructions supplied with the product.
The list of special child seats recommended for use by Opel and how they can be placed in the car are specified in the Specifications at the beginning of the chapter. Be careful, make sure that the purchased product is suitable both for your child and for installation on your car.
On models equipped with front passenger seat occupied recognition (see Section 13), only a special Opel child seat equipped with transponders can be installed on the latter. With a different vehicle configuration, the installation of a child seat in front is not allowed!
On ISO-FIX models, the rear seat outboards are equipped with child seat anchors (see illustration 11.1). The brackets are located between the cushion and the back of the seat assembly.
Attention: ISOFIX seats are designed for children weighing no more than 22 kg! Strictly adhere to the instructions supplied with the product!
Always try to put your child in the back seat of the car and secure it properly using a special child seat or a standard seat belt. According to accident statistics, the rear seat is safer for transporting children than the front. Deployment of airbags in a collision could cause serious injury or even death to a child.
When transporting children who are over the age for placing them in child seats, use special booster cushions to ensure that the shoulder section of the seat belt is correctly positioned (see Section 10).
