If it is essential that a child travels in the front
passenger seat, Jaguar recommends that the
following preparations are made before fitting
the child restraint.
• 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 front tilt adjustment is
possible, adjust it to its lowest position.
• Adjust the seat back to the fully upright
position.
• Adjust the seat belt adjustable upper
anchorage to its lowest position.
Extreme hazard! Never place a rearward
facing child restraint on the front passenger
seat. The infant could be seriously injured or
killed if the air bag deploys.
SEAT BELT LOCKING MECHANISM
The front passenger and rear seat belts have a
locking mechanism which improves the
retention of child seats.
The procedure to install a child seat is as
follows:
1. Place the child seat in the vehicle, attach
the seat belt and secure the buckle in
accordance with the manufacturer’s fitting
instructions.
2. Pull on the shoulder section of the belt to
unreel all of the remaining webbing to the
limit of its travel. This will engage the
automatic locking feature which then acts
as a ratchet, only allowing the webbing to
retract.
3. Allow the seat belt to retract onto the child
seat (a clicking sound will confirm that the
ratchet has engaged), while firmly pushing
the child seat into the vehicle seat.
4. Ensure that there is no slack in the seat
belt, by pulling upwards on the shoulder
belt immediately above the child restraint.
The seat belt should now be locked and the
child seat held firmly in position.
When the child seat is removed and all of the
seat belt webbing is allowed to retract, the seat
belt locking mechanism reverts to normal
operation.
CHILD RESTRAINT CHECK LIST
Every time a child travels in the vehicle observe
the following:
Non-LATCH child restraints
• Carefully follow the instructions provided
by the manufacturer of the restraint
system.
• Always use the appropriate child restraints
and adjust harnesses for every child, every
trip.
• Make sure that a child falls into the correct
weight range for the seat. Avoid dressing a
child in bulky clothing and do not place any
objects between the child and the restraint
system.
• Regularly check the fit of a child seat and
replace seats or harnesses that show signs
of wear.
• Ensure that you have removed all slack
from the adult seat belt.
• No child seat is completely child-proof.
Encourage a child not to play with the
buckle or harness.
• Never leave a child unsupervised in the
vehicle.
