to Regulation No. 44.04 series of amendments, for
general use in vehicles, and it will t most, but not
all car seats.

has declared that the vehicle is capable of accepting
a “Universal” child restraint for this age group.

versal” under more stringent conditions than those
that were applied to earlier designs not displaying

static or 3-point retractor safety belt approved to
