Additional Info
More Details
* The harness vest can be fitted onto the passenger before boarding the car.
* The magnetic buttons can only be opened by magnet and stop passengers from accidentally opening the vest front.
* The harness is secured on the vehicle seat back using one or two horizontal or vertical straps.
Considerations
* When using either the Unisafety Harness or Buckle / Angel Guards, there is an added risk, that in the case of a vehicle accident, those assisting in any rescue may not know how to release the harness / guards. To this end it is recommended that a seat belt cutter is always carried in the vehicle, and the provided sticker is placed in the vehicles' window.
* It may be helpful to refer to the following Australian Standards to assist in deciding the safest way to transport a child with a disability.
The two Australian Standards covering car restraints are:
(1). AS/NZS 1754:2004 Child Restraint System for Use in Motor Vehicles,
which covers:
- all standard car seats and capsules,
- and harnesses with user mass up to 32 kg.
(2). AS/NZS 4370:1996 Restraint of Children with Disabilities in Motor
Vehicles, which covers:
- recommendations for prescribers,
- situations that require modification,
- and custom modifications to cater for special needs.
* While most child car restraints comply with AS/NZS 1754:2004, when
outside the scope of this standard it will be necessary to follow the recommendation of AS/NZS 4370:1996. Therefore a medical certificate or medical prescription is needed specifying that the user with disabilities requires alternative seating other than an approved car restraint. A copy of the current medical certificate should also be carried in the vehicle when using the restraint. It is recommended that the same procedure for adults with special needs.
