“Universal” means the seat is approved for use in all vehicles that
meet ECE R14 and R16 regulations. A proper fit is more likely if

“Universal” child restraint.
Vehicles that are declared “Universal” have been done so
under more stringent conditions than those applied to earlier
designs which do not carry this notice.
