79 Note
79 </span>
79 - The Department for Transport has been notified by the UN that the new rules for manufacturers of
backless booster seats apply from 9 Feb 2017.
79 </p>
80 <p>
80 The new rules mean that manufacturers aren’t allowed to introduce new models of backless
booster seats for children shorter than 125cm or weighing less than 22kg.
80 </p>
81 <p>
81 Use the child seat for every journey, no matter how short. Make sure the seat’s harness (if it has
one) is correctly adjusted so it is quite tight, so that only one or two fingers can fit between
the child’s chest and the harness. The harness buckle should not rest over the child’s tummy.
81 </p>
82 <p>
82 Only EU-approved baby seats, child car seats or booster cushions can be used in the UK. These have
a label showing a capital ‘E’ in a circle.
82 </p>
83 <p>
83 You can use your child’s car seat in the front seat of a vehicle, in accordance with
manufacturer’s instructions / advice and if it fits, for example in 2-seater cars or convertibles
with the top down.
83 </p>
84 <p>
84 You must deactivate any frontal airbags before fitting a rear-facing baby seat.

89 </h2>
90 <p>
90 It is a good idea to take toys and books to occupy small children on long journeys.
90 </p>
91 <p>
91 If the vehicle has to be stopped at the side of the road or on the hard shoulder of a motorway,
the hazard warning lights should be put on, all occupants should get out of the vehicle and stand
well away from the road, and the emergency services must be called.
