Land Rover Defender: Child seat safety
Make sure to read and fully understand the following warnings before using any of the features in this section.
Failure to observe warnings and cautions may result in vehicle damage, injury, or DEATH in the event of an accident.
Always follow the instructions that accompany the child seat carefully.
Always use a child restraint or booster seat appropriate to the age and size of a child.
Always wear seat belts or use suitable child restraints, for every trip, no matter how short.
Always securely store a head restraint, if removing it in order to fit a child restraint.
Always refit a removed head restraint after a child restraint is removed.
Always make sure the child restraint is correctly anchored.
Never use a forward-facing child restraint until the child using it is above 20 lb (9 kg), 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.
Never 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.
Never use a child seat that only hooks over the seatback. A child seat of this type cannot be satisfactorily secured and is unlikely to be safe for a child.
Even with advanced air bags, children can be killed or seriously injured. Never place a child in any type of child restraint or booster seat in the front passenger seat. All children under the age of 12 should ride in the outboard second row seats.
