Occupant safety
CHILD SEATS
The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are
designed for adults and larger children. For
their safety it is very important for all infants
and children under 12 years of age to be
restrained in a suitable child safety seat
appropriate to their age and size.
For optimum safety, children should
travel in the rear of the vehicle at all
times; front passenger seat travel is
not recommended. However, if it is
essential that a child travels in the
front (not permitted in Australia), set
the vehicle seat fully rearward and
seat the child in an approved
If it is essential that a child travels in the front
passenger seat (and national legislation
permits this), Land Rover recommends that
the following preparations are made before
fitting the child restraint.
forward-facing child seat. Do not use
a rear-facing child seat - an inflating
airbag could impact with the seat and
cause serious injury.
Disable the front passenger airbag. See 56,
VEHICLE INFORMATION AND SETTINGS
MENU.
Do not use a forward facing child seat
until the child using it is above the
minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and
able to sit up unaided. Up to the age of
two, a child's spine and neck are not
sufficiently developed to avoid injury
in a frontal impact.
Adjust the front passenger seat fully
rearwards.
Adjust the lumbar support to its minimum
support position.
Adjust the seat cushion to its highest
position. If cushion rake adjustment is
possible, adjust it to its lowest position.
Do not allow a baby or infant to be
held or carried on the lap. The force of
a crash can increase effective body
weight by as much as thirty times,
making it impossible to hold onto the
child.
Adjust the seat back to the fully upright
position.
Adjust the seat belt adjustable upper
anchorage to its lowest position.
Extreme hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an airbag in front of
it!
Children typically require the use of a
booster seat appropriate to their age
and size, thereby enabling the seat
belts to be properly fitted, reducing
the risk of injury in a crash. Children
could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly
secured in the vehicle.
Do not use a child seat that hooks over
the seat back. This type of seat cannot
be satisfactorily secured and is
unlikely to be safe for your child.
