Land Rover Defender: Child seat overview
Make sure to read and fully understand the relevant warnings before using any of the features in this section.
All infants and children should be restrained in a suitable child safety seat.
The child safety seat should be appropriate to the age and size of the infant or child.
CHILD SEAT POSITIONING
Make sure to read and fully understand the relevant warnings before using any of the features in this section.
Crash statistics show that children are safest when properly secured in a child restraint system appropriate for the age and weight of the child, in a rear seating position. Failure to use an appropriate restraint system greatly increases the risk of serious injury or death in the event of an accident.
Note: The legislation which governs how and where children should be carried when traveling in a vehicle is subject to change. The driver is responsible for making sure that all regulations in force are complied with.
BOOSTER SEATS
Make sure to read and fully understand the relevant warnings before using any of the features in this section.
A child may be too large to fit into a child safety seat, but too small to safely fit the vehicle's seat belt. In these circumstances it is recommended that a booster seat is used for maximum safety. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the fitting and use of the booster seat. Adjust the vehicle's seat belt accordingly.
If the booster seat is fitted with LATCH connectors, these should be used to secure the seat in conjunction with the rear seat belt.
