Installing an ISOFIX child restraint system on the
rear seat
& WARNING Risk of injury or death if the
permissible gross mass of the child and
child restraint system together is excee-
ded.
Too much load may be placed on the LATCH-
type (ISOFIX) child restraint system and the
child may not be restrained correctly in the
event of an accident, for example.
If the child and the child restraint system
#
together weigh more than the permissi-
ble gross mass of 73 lb (33 kg ), only use
a LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child restraint
system with which the child is secured
with the vehicle seat belt.
Also secure the child restraint system
#
with the Top Tether belt, if available.
Always comply with the information about the
mass of the child restraint system:
In the manufacturer's installation and operat-
R
ing instructions for the child restraint system
used
On a label on the child restraint system, if
R
present
Regularly check that the permissible gross mass
of the child and child restraint system is still com-
plied with.
When installing a child restraint system, observe
the following:
O Always observe the correct use of the seats
and consider their suitability for attaching a
child restraint system.

O Always comply with the manufacturer's
installation and operating instructions for the
child restraint system used.
O Children up to a height of 4.4 ft (1.35 m) can
travel in the child restraint system on the rear
seats. Children 4.4 ft (1.35 m) to 5 ft
(1.50 m) tall should travel in a suitable child
restraint system on the front passenger seat.
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
system, 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 1 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 1: the backrest of the
child restraint system must lie as flat as pos-
sible against the backrest of the vehicle seat.
