O Always comply with the manufacturer's
installation and operating instructions for the
child restraint system used.
O Make sure that the child's feet do not touch
the front seat. If necessary, move the front
seat slightly forwards.
®When installing an ISOFIX child restraint sys-
tem, also observe the following:
O When using a baby car seat in weight group
0/0+ and a rearward-facing child restraint
system in Weight group I on a rear seat:
adjust the front seat so that the seat does
not touch the child restraint system.
O When using a forward-facing child restraint
system in Weight group I: remove the head
restraint from the respective seat, if possible.
In addition, the backrest on the child
restraint system must lie as flat as possible
against the backrest on the vehicle seat.
After the child restraint system has been
removed, replace the head restraint immedi-
ately and adjust all head restraints correctly.
O When using a child restraint system on a
seat on the third row of seats: adjust the
front seat so that it does not touch the child
restraint system and move the seat backrest
on the front seat into an upright position if
necessary.
O If the head restraint of the child seat cannot
be fully extended when it is installed in the
vehicle, this will result in restrictions on the
maximum size setting for child restraint sys-
tems in weight group II or III.
Contact with the roof when the head
restraint is fully extended and locked in place
will not result in any restrictions on use.
O Ensure that the child restraint system is not
subjected to strain between the roof and the
seat cushion and/or installed facing the
wrong direction. Where possible, adjust the
seat cushion inclination accordingly.
O Ensure that the child restraint system is not
subjected to strain by the head restraint.
Adjust the head restraints as appropriate.
Before every journey, make sure that the ISO-
#
FIX child restraint system is engaged in both
mounting brackets in the vehicle.
* NOTE Damage to the seat belt for the cen-
ter seat during installation of the child
restraint system
Make sure that the seat belt is not trap-
#
ped.
