Zealand Standard with an inbuilt anti rebound feature and does not require additional anti rebound
bars or mechanisms to fullfill these requirements.
The CS4010/CS4410 Child restraint has also been designed to be a compact restraint to enable
multiple restraints to be used in the rear of most vehicles.

IMPORTANT

Care and attention should be given to ensure that the baby has adequate ventilation and
shading when in the restraint.
To achieve the necessary distribution of deceleration forces during a vehicle impact, ensure the
child is seated correctly in the child restraint and the harness is fitted and adjusted as per these
instructions.
Ensure the child restraint and child are rearward facing.

If the babys neck muscles are unable to support their head, then the infant should remain rear facing.
The Purchaser should check the measurement between the
front of the seat back of the rear seat and all front seats in the
car in which the child restraint is intended to be used, to
