Occupant safety
Contact with the roof when the head
restraint is fully extended and locked in
place will not result in any restrictions on
use.
O The child restraint system must not be put
under strain between the roof and the seat
cushion and/or be fitted facing the wrong
direction. Where possible, adjust the seat
cushion inclination accordingly.
O The child restraint system must not be put
under strain by the head restraint. Adjust
the head restraints as appropriate.
° When fitting an i‑Size child restraint sys‐
tem, also observe the following:
O When using a rearward-facing child
restraint system: adjust the front seat so
that it does not touch the child restraint sys‐
tem.
O When using a forward-facing child
restraint system: remove the head
restraint from the respective seat, if possi‐
ble. In addition, the backrest of the child
restraint system must lie as flat as possible
against the backrest of the vehicle seat.
After the child restraint system has been
removed, replace the head restraints again
immediately and adjust them correctly.
Before every journey, make sure that the ISOFIX
child restraint system or the i‑Size child restraint
system is engaged correctly in both ISOFIX or
i‑Size mounting brackets.
