Installing child restraints
When installing and using a child restraint, there is a number of things to keep in mind, depending on the location of the child restraint in your car.
Warning
Child restraints and front passenger seat
Never use a child restraint on the front passenger seat. Volvo follows NHTSA's and Transport Canada's recommendations and recommends that all children up to and including 12 years of age sit in the rear seat. This is an extra strong recommendation for children in rearward-facing child restraints.
Important
Local regulations
Regulations on where and how children should be seated and secured differ between regions. Make sure that you know what applies to the region you are in.
Manufacturer's instructions
Always follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the child restraint.
